0.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20 pineypower (1827) - Pine Barrens, New Jersey, USA - JUN 28, 2007
Had to try this over marketed beer, I wasn’t expecting anything much, and I wasn’t let down. Pours a shade darker than Corona Piss yellow, kind of like when you take a lot of vitamins and take a piss. Watery, slightly skunky and maybe a tad more flavor than a Corona, but I could easily see this beer being toted around with a lime in the top by an abercrombie clad frat boy. Buffet should have saved some face and not put his brand name on this one.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20 BrewEd (182) - Wilmington, North Carolina, USA - JUN 24, 2007
Chalk one up for marketing - I did like the bottle. As for the beer, its unexceptional, a little skunky, and if I’m drinking an AB product I’d rather have a Bud than paying 2x the price for this.

Bottle. After all the hype, I figured I’d try one. And it is pretty much an American Corona. Not the worst thing I have ever tasted, but pretty crappy overall.

When my friend gave me this bottle, I thought I was gonna get my first rating from Florida. Turns out it’s an AB product. Well it looks like a good fizzy yellow lager with a fluffy white head. Not much to smell, a little bit of apple and corn. Very bland tasting. Very thin. Very watery. Boo..

Draft at Great Wolf Lodge. Pale gold pour with off-white head. I didn’t get much in the aroma or taste except slight hop and malt notes. This one was watery and bland, and not worth your time.
2 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20 Scubatrip (559) - Annandale, Virginia, USA - JUN 15, 2007
From the bottle at Margaritaville, New Orleans, this really isn’t that bad. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely not a beer to write home about, but if you expect a Corona-like beer going in, that’s what you’ll get. It’s a tad heavier than Corona, and tastes citrusy already, so there’s no need for a lime wedge. For a beer with a captivated audience, Budweiser just needed to not screw it up. Which they accomplished. A pretty decent alternative to Corona.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20 drunkbull19 (10) - Clearwater Beach, Florida, USA - JUN 14, 2007
Def not a real beer drinkers beer. Very light taste. Pretty weak. A very smooth taste that classifys this as a "bitch" beer. When you want something light to drink that tastes like beer water, then this stuff is for you.
1.1 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 3/20 Braudog (4607) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - JUN 10, 2007
From a clear 12 oz bottle, this poured clear yellow with a gluey white foam head. Soapy lemony aroma, what there is of it. The bland flavor is pure adjunct, corny malt and water. A misguided waste of valuable brewing equipment and talented brewers .. guys who can make beer with such consistency should be using those skills to make something with some flavor.

Bottle in Orlando, FL. Pale yellow body. Aroma is stale, skunky Corona. Grainy corn. Tastes slightly better than Corona? Simple grainy silage, simple hops. Palate is really thin and non-existent. I added cracked black pepper to it to make it taste better (and it does).
2.1 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 1/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 AR (724) - Georgia, USA - JUN 3, 2007
I’m not much of a fan of pale lagers in general, but this beer did have a little more substance than most of the macros. A pleasant hot-weather beer. Had a couple while playing in the springs.
