LandShark Lager

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

Pale american lager. Same old macro brew beer. I dont think its on the lower end of the the ladder, though. Its better then corona, and oddly is really flat and easy to drink. I like a bit less carbonation in my pissing macro lager(which this has very little for what it is), as I get less heartburn.

Had this at Sea World served as part of the Brewmaster "class" they offer to pimp AB products. Pours a translucent golden with a small bubbly white head. Aroma was kind of a mix of corn, rice, cereal grains and lime. Flavor of the same. Lime is just barely there. Liked this better than Corona, not as skunked and the Lime was just enough without being over powering.

Yes, another Anheuser-Busch Companies, Inc. Pretty good disguise. Just like Green Valley Brewing Stone Mill Pale Ale, I was fooled by new labels. Mild soiled diaper aroma. Ropey non alcohol flavors and texture. Uniquely imbecilic name. Clear bottle and yellow ubiquitous american lager look. How about this; it says brewed by Margaritaville Brewing in Jacksonville! Processed feel and finish. Not bitter but metallic and cardboard at time. Sometimes I think I can feel unsweetened lemon rind in the background.

A cheap AB version of something trying to be a Carona, but fails in comparison.

Bottled. Poured golden with an off white head. Aroma is slightly skunked and malty. Flavor is watery, with some malt and corn. Very generic and watery with no offensive or flavorful tastes.

Pours golden w/ a decent head. Skunky aromas fill the goblet. Light to medium in weight. This brew is not unlike all the other American macros by design.

2/6/08 From the bottle. Aroma is low on corniness and pils character, but has a strange sweet vegetal/fresh note that is not objectional, but hard to place, possibly a noble hop that’s not as commonly used. Appearance is a light clear straw-gold, with a fairly well maintained white head. Flavor is simple and sweet. There’s more pils malt character here with low noble hop bittering. Mouthfeel is watery, but not watered down; I hope that makes sense. Carb texture is medium. Overall, better than expected, and very easy drinking.

Bottle = Corona without the usual skunk. Tasted almost flat. It will sell well to brand seekers who don’t like beer and just want to hold a nice bottle in their hand at a parrot party. Heh.
