COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Bud Light Platinum has reinvented the category of light beer. Within each cobalt blue bottle lies a bold formula that’s triple filtered with a smooth finish to create its stop shelf taste. Its the first of its kind, and the only beer worthy of the name Bud Light Platinum.

Well this was all the rage over a year ago, and a friend swears by it, so why not. Bottle into lager glass, very light pale yellow with bright white head that disappears fast. Aroma of sweet corn and some skunk. Taste is a little better, malt sweetness, some grain and a small note of apple. Light body, heavy carbonation, thin. Very little grainy sweet finish lingers. A little better then Bud Light original but not by a staggering (platinum) margin.

It smells stronger than bud light. It is a strong beer no matter what these so called consumers say. Its at a stronger level then coronas which is well known. It gets you pretty tipsy. And its a slow drink, unless you are trying to get drunk. No matter who you are a 6 pack will get you going.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy and very pale yellow color with a small white head. Has a fruity grainy weak corn aroma. Sweetish fruity grainy corn flavor. Has a sweetish grainy finish.

Honestly it is hard to tell the difference between this beer and regular bud light. Both are terrible and both pour with a piss yellow almost clear color. This one only has a little bit more of a finish to let you know that you are actually drinking a beer!!

IrishBoy (3641) - Bakersfield, California, USA - APR 5, 2013
2 oz pour from a bomber my son was drinking. Nose is sweet corn and maybe a tiny hint of floral? Crystal clear piss yellow with a small white head. Flavor is sweet and corny without any discernable bitterness.

omega (500) - NEW ZEALAND - APR 3, 2013
Nondescript beer, but actually better than I was expecting. Pours very light in colour and very transparent - no doubt this is a "feature". LIttle soapy in the palate, but not much happening it goes slides down the throat with little interest.

jackl (2832) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - APR 3, 2013
Bottle at some burger joint in Naples. Light gold with a small head. The nose is general grain, some honey, a little skink, onion. The taste is very sweet. Loads of apple, some fruit leather. Little else. Syrupy. Light body, plenty of carbonation. Overall, really boring stuff. Better than bud light, as if that’s saying something...

GarnotingPete (530) - Montréal, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 31, 2013
Bière cristalline, très peu de col laissant peu de dentelle au verre. Arômes de malt générique et d’alcool. Peu amère avec passablement de sucre et d’aigre. Elle est mince, aqueuse, d’effervescence animée et se termine sur une final rapide et sèche d’alcool.
