Michelob Amber Bock

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

for a macro not too bad. An AB product that actually follows through with it’s description. I can really taste the roasted part of the beer

Tap @ Yankee Stadium. Pours a decent brown color. Aroma is malt, hops, and some slight sweetness in there (caramel, roasted characteristics? Not sure). Roasted malt on the taste, though there isn’t much depth to it. Not the worst macro-brewed beer in the world.

Medium brown pour. Caramel, malt, very small notes of hops on the nose. Flavor isn’t bad, little hints of that ’cold beer’ flavor, but for the most part the caramel and malt stand out in this above average big corp brew.

12 fl. oz. (US) bottle dated 18 Oct 07. Pours an oblique mahogany brown with an off-white bubbly head and considerable carbonation. I think I can smell malts and a bit of barley. Kind of thin on the tongue. The flavor is kind of bold but still watered down. I have got to hand it to Michelob. They are beginning to produce some better stuff. This one wasn’t all that bad.

Bottle: Rather malty and sweet, a bit thin with little character but drinkable.

Probably the only decent AB beer I’ve tried. More Amber than Bock (bocks can’t have adjuncts), but it’s Mich with a nice roasted flavor that hides the crisp rice flavor. Very little hops aroma/flavor, but I’d drink this if I were stuck with a bunch of hardcore AB drinkers.

Yeah ok decided to try this one out from my dad’s fridge. Pours a reddish brown with almost no head, maybe a slight brown ring around the top. Not much aroma to speak of very light caramel and hops. Taste is again whimpy with a bit of sweet caramel and that’s about it, hops are gone now and only slightly detectable on the nose. Not a terrible beer, certainly not a good beer. Life wouldn’t have changed much if I had just skipped this one over.

I love this stuff. Being from a small town and not having the largest range of beer to choose from it’s always nice to come across a surprise hit like this one. It has become a favorite amongst my friends.
