Green Valley Brewing Wild Hop Lager

Sweet malt and mild hops. There really isn’t much to this one. Better than AB’s usual stuff but nothing special at all.

I give Anheuser-Busch some credit for attempting to make a more full flavored beer. Unfortunately for me the flavor this beer had was one I didn’t much care for... Am I the only one on here who thought this beer tasted like pine needles?

Bottle. I find it funny that they have "WILD HOP" in the largest font on the bottle but yet the fail to mention anything about hops when they list the ingredients below. I drank this out of the bottle. This wasn’t that bad. Mild hop and malt flavors. Unoffensive and easy to drink. I had already had a couple at this point, so I may have thought differently if this was my first beer of the day. Why can’t they just make an IPA?

Sampled after the tour in the St Louis brewery. Golden amber color with a foamy white head. Very faint hop aroma and taste. Not what I was expecting for a product called Wild Hops, but a huge step above most AB products.

12 oz bottle . freshness date in the bottom left corner of the label.

Pours dark golden with a 1 finger head and decent lacing.

Aroma is malty, lots of fruity esters. Not much in the way of hops.

Flavor is sweet, fruity and sticky.
Finish is short.

bottle at dicarlo’s tasting. i don’t remember much about this except that it sucked and it was super harsh lager flavor with yuckyish malts. the AB distributor was pushing it pretty hard.

Bottle, Waldo Pizza in KCMO. Pour is clear amber, with a decent white head. Aroma was very faint, a touch of malt and hop after a bit. Taste is really weak, not much too this one.

Nice looking bottle label. Pours a pale amber color with a fairly thick bumpy white head. Aroma of sweet malt and hops. Taste of clean, crisp, but a little watery. Somewhat a dry finish. Refreshing and aove average for A&B, but not a beer worth taking up valuable space in my beer cellar.
