COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Busch NA is a fully-fermented, non-alcohol version of Busch beer that offers a smooth, full-bodied, malty flavor. All of Anheuser-Busch’s non-alcohol products are brewed, fermented and aged to full maturity. The alcohol is then removed through the use of low-temperature, low-pressure distillation. This extremely gentle process allows the alcohol to be removed without heating or cooking the beer, which retains the full, rich and delicate flavor and balance of our non-alcohol brews.

SATAN! This is Satan! It's the devil! Horrible! I'd rather drink my dogs loose bowels! Why are people allowed to sell stuff like this?

I did not buy this, please don’t judge me. I actually found about 4 cans of these and some oduols outback a gas station. I have been trying to trick people that come to my house to party to drink them. Nobody will fall for it, so i am drinking one bored as hell. It dosn’t smell like anything and it looks almost decent. the flavor is corn and and pretty much nothing else, it kinda taste like beer, but not really. Taste like a busch without the alcohol. I expected much less. this would be good to cook a chicken with or something....

Not good. Actually it is too bad that it is apparently impossible to make a good no alcohol beer. Heck even a light beer is next to impossible to make as a drinkable beverage. This looks like beer(or at least a reasonable attempt at American Macro Swill). After this however the similarity ends. Pass if at all possible

UPDATED: OCT 13, 2005 Subpremium priced, subpremium quality. No aroma. Almost no flavour, and thin: mild sweetness, like selzer water with a dash of corn syrup. Extremely foamy head. To its credit, it has no objectionable qualities that stand out: it lacks the unpleasant sourness that characterizes ODoul’s, and I would prefer it to that brew. It’s also less sweet (and overall better) than Coor’s NA, which is much pricier. What I don’t understand is the other reviewers who talk about a skunky smell or stinging quality...are they just disparaging this beer because it’s non-alcoholic? Sure, it’s pretty awful, but because it’s bland, not because it has any real objectionable qualities. In my head, the big question is: why drink this when there’s another NA that is both cheaper (believe it or not) and better--Penn’s Best NA.

Thanks to Maniac for leaving this one at Immy’s Tasting! 12oz. can. Pours clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Nose is faint, but some metallic sweet corn can be made. No flavor at all. Possibly a little corn. A little metallic aftertaste. Mostly this resembles water, and kind of quenches your thirst as well.

OK, just trying to get to 100 and had this beer in fridge. Really is the worst.

UPDATED: AUG 31, 2007 Can. Thanks NachlamSie. Pours pale gold with a medium white head. Noticeably better looking than something like Michelob Ultra. Aroma is cardboard and stale beer. Not blatantly offensive though. Flavor is corny, grainy, and a lingering cardboard finish. In retrospect, this really reminds me of Obolon Svitle, but without the instant headache. Mouthfeel is flat and lifeless. Not the worst beer I’ve had by far, but definitely one of the most pointless.
