Budweiser American Ale

bottle. Poured clear red-amber with thinning off-white head. Woody, hoppy aroma. A bit watery texture. Some caramel, sweet and malty. Finishes dry with lingering metallic bitterness.

[Bottle] Sweet malt aroma (a plus). Looks clear and crisp, like a solid amber ale . . . with a thin head. Bitter and carbonated, but quite thin for a THE american ale, but then again, its from the makers of uber-commercialized beer. No qualms about it, i’ll take it over your standard Bud or Bud Light any day, but I won’t be excited about it. IN SUM: I like the aroma; that’s about it. I also wouldn’t pay more than $1 per bottle for it. . .

Copper pour with rather large tannish head. Some caramel in the aroma and lots of carbonation. Slight taste of caramel but has a lot of bitterness and some metallic taste. Overall, not too bad for Budweiser.

Mostly clear copper amber body topped by an attractive beige head that laces well. Subdued aroma of toasted caramel and vaguely fruity hops. Light medium body with lots of carbonation. Taste is ho-hum. Caramel malt sweetness and understated hop bitterness which is vague. Bought a sixpack of this a month ago and it just sits in the fridge.

Pours a soft brown amber with about 2 fingers of off-white foamy creamy head. Not much armoa, soft sweetness with a hint of hops. Starts off with a soft sweet maltiness, that ends with a bit of a metallic hop bitterness. The aftertaste lingers with a general impression of most Budweisers. It’s about what I heard- not necessarily good, but decent, and far better than anything else budweiser does.

Bottle. Dark red amber with creamy medium beige head and lace. Sweet, butter aroma with only the slightest amount of citrus hops. Cloyingly sweet flavor, metallic, chalky, butterscotch, slight cascade, and a slight bubblegum. Medium and creamy with a slight hop note.

Bottle pour into pint. Nice amber color with sizeable off-white head. Nice aroma of hops, yeast and malt. Very smooth throughout, not dry at the end. Lacing lingers till the end. Head diminishes mostly, with yeasty remains. Overall I was pleased with this offering.

Draft. Pours a deep amber color with a fluffy, light tan head. The nose is light with hints of pine and light malt. Medium-high carbonation with a light mouthfeel. A bit of pine, citrus, vanilla, and sweet malt on the palate. Pretty light in body overall. A little bit of lingering sweetness in the finish. I would call this a respectable gateway ale. A nice first step away from the pale lager crowd.
