I prefer this to most of the other mass-produced A/B products. A cleaner taste without the awful aftertaste.

This beer stinks. I don’t know what is really "select" about this, it tastes just like all the other crap Anheuser-Busch puts out. Gross.

11/17/06: Huge plastic cup @ The Black Keys show.
Yellow body, no head, no lace. Another icky version from A-B. The best part of this beer was the classy plastic cup… I would like to watch a small goldfish swim around in this mutha’.

just a more bitter version of bud, with a girble of more skunky hops...same dog differnt fleas

I am usually not a huge fan of the Budweiser family of beers, but this one is different. I prefer this beer over Budweiser Original and Bud Light.

What is the goal here? My impression tucking into this was that I was in for the brewers attempt at something respectable (i.e. he "selected" this brew as something special). I’m an idiot for maintaining such lofty expectations. I’d have to try this side-by-side with regular Bud to be certain (and that ain’t gonna happen), but I’m pretty sure this is the same beer with a different label. And I made the grievous error of purchasing a supercan of this stuff!

I rarely rate an industrial macro but after an otherwise "normal" buddy mentioned that he liked this one, I thought I owed it a try.... now I owe him a whack on the head. Pours a pale yellow and fizzy with a very short-lived white "head". Standard skunky - though faint - aroma of grain. Practically no flavor (and that’s a good thing because what little flavor there is is borderline offensive - adjunct-heavy and no hops). Mouthfeel is no feel = water. Finishes with no discernable effect on the toungue. This stuff is just the latest in A-B’s spectacularly effective advertising-driven NASCAR/Wal-Mart cheap swill.

My absolute favorite beer that you can get anywhere you go (I.E. miller, coors, or bud common products). It’s great to BBQ with and to drink alot of, "expect everything" ...no
