Budweiser American Ale

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Amber Ale
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Sampled at Sea World. Amber to copper in color with a solid amount of off white head. Aroma of caramel, sweet malt, earth and flowers. Flavor was slightly sweet caramel with a good amount of earthiness in the finish. Nice to see that they actually used a bit of hops in this one. Not a bad beer at all.

Bottle on 09/27/2008, not even a screwtop bottle, surprising actually. Very clear copper amber body with a large creamy off-white head. Sweet, almost nutty aroma with some caramel and earthy hops. Sweet caramel flavor, a bit of a sugary edge, more nuttiness and dry earthy hops in the finish. Medium body with moderate carbonation.

Pours more of an amber ale color. There is some hop character here, and I really don’t mind drinking this at all.

This is a good beer for people who are moving up from a light beer. Amber color with white head nice amount of hops for what it is. i am glad they came out with this beer to help bring people to respecting better beers.

Honey colored pour. Small white head with good lacing. Floral aroma. Spicey, fruity front end with good hop punch in the end. Kind of wish the everyday Bud tasted like this. I’d drink this as a session beer and the price is right.

I was recently subjected to this Ale when a buddy of mine brought over a six pack. He built it up as the beer that made him stop drinking Miller and start drinking Budweiser. Overall, I was not very impressed with the beer. It pours a good head and has a nice caramel color to it but lacks total depth of flavor. In the end I would have to say that I am not going to be a Budweiser guy anytime soon...and that my friend is an idiot!

It has that regular skunky budweiser taste with a little light accent of different yeasts. I do find it ironic, however, that they make an ’American Ale’ only after the company is no longer solely American.

Nice looking pour of clear amber with a substantial creamy off white head. Aroma of light toffee, not much in the way of hop aroma noted, gentle soft bitterness without a lot of character does provide balance, and leaves a dry finish. Light to medium body and carbonation, with a clean palate. There’s nothing really objectionable about this beer, but there isn’t anything that is remarkable either. It’s just a middle of the road brew it’s a good stepping stone for a more flavored beer if you are used to drinking Bud light.
