Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Pale Lager
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

Pours yellow with a small head. Like a more watery budweiser but not a Bud Light. Not really horrible but definitely not something special. Just a run of the mill cheap lager made for mass consumption.

32oz screw-top bottle. I think I like busch light better. That is a great testament to the quality of this beer. Sweet corn and synthetic metallic notes are about all you can get out of the aroma and flavor. Feels like fizzy water on the tongue, though I have had thinner still. I still like Busch over Natty, but maybe that is just because this is more novel. I’d hardly call it rare, but a thirty pack of this is pretty much impossible to come by in these parts, which is a shame because Busch really brings a nice charming character that Natty just can’t match.

I had a few of these last night that a friend gave me. Meh, it’s a watered down, American macro pale lager, so like, really, what the hell do you want me to say? Bland and inoffensive, no adjuncty flavours that really disgust, though that’s not to say that they aren’t there. Sort of a weird, slightly dry and salty finish. Good party beer though. For people who aren’t looking for much flavour but still hate Coors Light (oh wait no sorry, Coors tastes like easy-drinking, and cold, not nothing). One of those corner stones of North American macro crappiness that you have to have at some point.

UPDATED: SEP 15, 2008 Gross...I really don’t know any other way to put it. Watered down. Almost tasteless but what little flavor there is, is disgusting. Don’t waste your time, like really...don’t.

Oh yeah, drank out of a sweet camo can. Pours that same clear, pale yellow color with a moderate, fizzy white head. Faint aroma of corn, and that’s pretty much it. Taste is lightly sweet with a hint of grainy corny, and dare I say it, a hint of toasted caramel on the finish. Smooth and easy to drink. Not much flavor, but it isn’t as offensive as some other cheap macro’s.

Oh my goodness, another gruesome macro lager. From a can, light yellow, corn nose and flavor,and no finish at all. Not even good ice cold.

I don’t know why I even tried this, maybe I was in the mood to torture myself that day. Pale, watered down, tasteless. I cannot give this a low enough rating.

Canned. Vaguely yellow,No aroma. Rather sweet and very light bodied with just some corn flavour and little mouthfeel. No bitterness.
