COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed and sold since 1876, "The King of Beers" is the largest-selling beer in the world. Budweiser has been the world’s best-selling beer since 1957, and is distributed in more than 70 countries. Budweiser leads the U.S. Premium beer category, outselling all other domestic premium beers combined. In fact, one in almost every five beers sold in the United States today is a Budweiser.

"Brewed with 100% natural ingredients. We use only the finest hops, barley malt, rice, yeast and water. We craft and age Budweiser using time-honoured brewing methods."

Absolutely horrid. Tastes like someone urinated in a bottle and then carbonated it. Not even remotely drinkable.

High school, anchorman, quarters .First vomit, first hangover . The Bud Mud. Doesn’t even taste good at a baseball game. I do like the commercials though.

a good old american standby. although it may not be a great beer to enjoy purely for flavor. it is a great beer to crack and share with the guys. you wont break the bank, most people wont complain if you crack open and bud and hand them it.

Absolute swill. A golden, almost off white color, instantly dissipating head with no lacing to speak of. Tastes like someone put something in the water supply along with some booze and decided to bottle it.

12 oz bottle. Aroma of rice and blandness. Pours no head, no lacing. Pale gold in appearance. Tastes highly carbonated, somewhat sweet, extremely bland. Every time I’ve "sessioned" this beer in my younger days, it’s given me the nastiest headache. No other beer does this. Is it the formaldehyde (aka embalming fluid) they put in it as a preservative? Saying that this is the "king of beers" is like saying Ramen noodles is filet mignon. It’s like saying Nickelback is The Beatles. It’s like saying Tacoma, Washington is Paris, France. And it’s like saying the star basketball player on your local fifth grade team is Michael Jordan. I could go on with these analogies all night. It’s not the king of beers, no--what it is is the king of mass-appeal mediocrity.

So... I think too many folks rank this beer by comparing it to a high ABV pale ale or IPA. It is an American style lager and it is the finest example of the breed. It is a uniform straw colored with good lacing for such a light beer. It has a light hop taste and a very mild bitter finish. This beer is perfect for tailgating, campfires, the beach and most other red blooded American activities. I’m also amazed at the consistency of this beer. It always tastes the same.

One of my favorite macros because of the buttery flavor. I don’t know if anyone gets this vibe, but I taste butter when I drink Bud.

Little more taste than other Macros, but not in a good way don’t know the flavor corn or something along those lines, but whatever it is I can honestly say I hate it.
