altehkiller (71), , California, USA Apr 6, 2009 I must say that this beer surprised me, but not in a good way. This actually looks like something you would want to drink, but tastes like something you will immediately forget. Slightly malty and barely hoppy. Far greater than i thought Budweiser was capable of brewing but that really isnt saying much. sethdude (600), St. Louis, Missouri, USA Apr 5, 2009 Decent fare from AB. Pours coppery/orange with a medium head. Aroma is fairly typical of APA or American Amber, lots of cascade hops dominate the front end, followed by a caramel malt honey note. Flavor is fairly reflective of the flavor, but there is an odd grape/apple skin flavor in there as well. A bit pricey, but in a pinch, this would satisfy a beer crave. RONCOD (104), Uledi, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 5, 2009 Pours a nice dark amber color with a thin tan head. It had some caramel maltiness with a hoppy finish to even out the flavor. Not too bad for Budweiser. carruthm (1112), Seattle, Washington, USA Apr 5, 2009 Not too bad surprisingly. It manages to drink like any typical amber ale, nothing special about it, but not noticeably bad either. SudsMcDuff (1691), was CapeTown,SA-now Houston, Texas, USA Apr 4, 2009 sorry, i didn’t mean to go poopy in your litterbox .. . free sample oh ya!! .. . pours with a fine head, foam number one! a decent attenmpt, no real flavour but drinkable... if this was served around the US like bud,miller,coors meaning if there were 4 choices everywhere, then i would drink this .. . jimmay (179), Waterloo, Ontario, Canada Apr 4, 2009 12 oz bottle at Applebees, BUffalo NY. Pours nice dark copper colour, with decent head. Aroma of malt, slightly soapy. Flavour not bad, considering its from A-B, decent when there is nothing better available. eaglefan538 (2355), Wilmington, Delaware, USA Apr 4, 2009 On draft at the Flyers game, one of the better selections at the time (enough Shocktop or Bass). The pour was light amber in color with an ok head. The aroma was caramel and grains. The flavor followed the aroma, for sure not strong for the style, but not a total bust either. True, a bit light for the style. The finish was relatively clean, though, with a semi-dry character (but no hop punch). An ok lighter beer w/o the adjunct overload. amishcaravan (237), Winona, Minnesota, USA Apr 3, 2009 aroma of malt and yeast. there is some hops as well. something else too.......almost like dishwasher detergent. taste is of mild cascade hops. it does have a slightly watered down taste. nice smooth finish. probably AB’s best so far. not a best beer but certainly one that I could drink casually.
