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.
"We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive Beechwood Aging produces a taste, a smoothness and a drinkability you will find in no other beer at any price."
"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."

Sevenlee (365) - Central Coast, NSW, AUSTRALIA - DEC 26, 2011
Pours a clear yellow with an instantaneously disappearing head. Aroma is faint malt. Taste is a little malt and that’s all. No body, no bitterness. Very watery! Really just, terrible.

Can. Really wanted to like this, tried being as objective as i could, but alas this beer just isn’t very good. Corny sour aroma, tastes tart, with corn and grain finish. One is enough...

JaKeAFC (153) - ITALY - DEC 18, 2011
0.66L bottle, Italian version brewed in Massafra. Very pale yellow with a big white head quickly reducing to a tiny lacing. Strawy nose. Aroma almost inexistent, some woody and strawy notes. No bitterness, flat taste. Rice make it all smooth (i like rice beers) and has dry finish. Easy to drink like a soft drink. Completely flat, thin body, soft carbonation. There are less expensive brews much more interesting.

Water with an amber taste and a little bit of alcohol; style over substance - a poor beer however you look at it. Dreadful.

Coors is way better! Bud is just not that good of a beer, it has good appearance though

JoeTheYounger (938) - Claremont, California, USA - DEC 13, 2011
Well here we go.....Poured a super clear piss yellow from a can with big little bubbles with small white head that stayed around the outer circumfrence of the lttle hotel glass I’m using. Aroma is really faint with some corn and light malts with maybe a little bit of cracker (white cracker that is). Taste is barely better than the aroma. Very watery taste with some grainy/bready corny characteristics. The carbonation is nice and finishes a bit bitter and dry. Small taste was enough for me.

BucannonXC5 (245) - San Diego, California, USA - DEC 9, 2011
Poured from a tallboy (24 oz.) can into a pint glass. Color was very clear, pale ale. Maybe ¾ inches of head. Light lacing on the top that dissipated in roughly 10 minutes. Non-existent on the film. Smelled of corn malts with some grains mixed in. Decent bite of alcohol that ended up dominating the aftertaste. Tasted of sweet, corn malts, a bit better than the smell. Rather smooth and watery. A bit metallic or canny, but it still worked. Light body. Thin texture. Average carbonation. Abrupt finish. Overall it was bit higher than I expected, but I knew I never had a problem with Budweiser. Something about Bud in a can seems pretty day manly.

Chudwick (345) - Taylor Mill (KY), FRANCE - DEC 4, 2011
bottle in a snifter (why not?) - pours pale yellow with quickly disappearing white head and no lacing, but quite bubbly. Nose is yeast and rice. Light body with watery texture. Taste is ever-so slightly bitter. High carbonation (BURP!). Inoffensive and easy to drink.
