COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Has a smooth, refreshing taste. Busch is brewed with a blend of premium American-grown and imported hops and a combination of malt and corn to provide a pleasant balanced flavor. Since being introduced regionally in 1955, the Busch beer brand family has grown to become one of the top-selling value beer brand families. Busch also holds a noted place in Anheuser-Busch history as the first new brand after the repeal of Prohibition.

It taste like a water down beer. To be honest it’s a second rate Budwiser. It’s just a cheap beer.

/Very/ light straw hue, I can see to the bottom of the 16oz can when it’s completely full. Very light cereal aroma, light dough, minerals. Doesn’t smell more powerful than mineral water, really. Lightly sweet, lightly acidic flavor. Lightly acidic, lightly bitter finish. And I’m being generous with the use of ’lightly’. Light body, watery texture, lively carbonation. There’s no reason to drink this. Carbonated spring water with a shot of vodka would acheive the same results and taste just as much of nothing.

I prefer Busch Beer over any other beer you can find in the bar. Its been around for 50 years because it is absolutely delicious.

12 oz. can. I remember back in the 70’s when we couldn’t get Busch in New York, we used to drive to CT for it because it had such a good rep back then. My tastes have obviously changed and I think beer in general has improved dramatically. Pours a light yellow with a white head. Not much aroma to speak of. Taste is mostly cereal. I wonder if A/B has changed the formula in the last 30 years, because this doesn’t taste like the beer I remember. Oh well.

I’m a little afraid. I found this in the back of my local dep’s beer fridge. Just one bottle. I think, "Hey, I’ve never reviewed a busch!" Now I am looking at the un-opened bottle. IT’s brewed on contract by labat. The label is stained, the bottle is dirty, and the cap is giving me an anoying amount of resistance. Well let’s try this out. Phissst. Aroma is sour corn. That can’t be right. It’s probably spoiled. If it is, feel free to erase this if it is. Pours the clasic pale yellow, perfectly clear slightly yelowish off white head. On to the taste, HEY, it’s not spoiled. Palat is kinda silky low carbonation and a little dry. Taste is actualy lovley. Clean crystal malt dominates, much maltier than most macro-lagers. Corn and grassy hop dominate the rest of the flavour, with undertones of cantaloup, fresh tomato, floral hops, parsley juice, pear and golden corn syrop. Finish is sweet and dry, with aftertaste of fresh corn and bean sprout. Wow, that was lovley. Bottle lasted as long as it took me to write this. I guess from looking at my own words, I would have to say this tastes like a fall harvest. Cheers

Had a can of this with grandpa on the porch on a warm September afternoon. Was a lot more malty than I would have expected from a cheap macro. Made me think of schlitz more than anything else. Still its rough, metallic, and missing the carbonated punch of natty and beast.

Budget swill. Cheap ingredients, watery, bland, metallic taste. This is an offense against humanity.
