Sampled from the bottle. The color is a clear gold, with a very small white head. It’s aroma is mostly hops, a bit of adjuncts, corny and grainy hops, basically no hops. The flavor is mostly sour, with some bitterness; not sweet at all. Not bad on the palate, some decent fizzyness, but fairly light and smooth. I think I may actually prefer regular Bud to this beer, but I wonder if there is even a difference.

This is not as harsh a bud, and its usually a little cheaper. Good hot summer day brew.

On tap at the Cards game. Poured clear bright golden with rising carbonation plus a dusting and a ring of white head. There wasn’t much to the aroma.. light, sweet pale malts and a tuft of wheat. Flavor was of dry pale malts and some mild light fruits at the core if you really strain.. very light floral bitterness.. watery on the back-end.. the epitome of non-offensive. Light-bodied and watery on the palate.. too crisp and clean.. left a dry, grainy bitterness on the finish.

Bottle with "born on" date of 24 Jul 07. I am treating this one no differently than any of the other beers I sample. No foregone conclusions! Pours yellow with a lively carbonation that contines through the session. Smells clean and fresh but no aroma of hops or malts that I can make out. Light mouth feel. Rather watery and a beer that makes me burp after just one sip! Goes down fast. Better than Budweiser regular. $4.99 a six pack in my area.

"Select", yeah right. I had one and had a hard time drinking it. Too expensive and not appealing to drink.

Bottle, what the hell is wrong with me I was actually gagging when trying to drink this one. reminds me of a watered down malt liquor, nasty

Bottle. Amazed that Budweiser could taste any worse but it’s possible. Watery taste.

Budweiser made even worse. No real taste beyond a sweetness and water. Not good.
