Michelob Ultra Pomegranate Raspberry

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Fruit Beer
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Pours very pale yellow with a 2-3 finger fizzy white head (really just looks like ginger ale all around) that has almost no retention but leaves a thin ring that sticks. Aroma is raspberry syrup, mineral water, strawberry and a hint of cough syrup. Flavor is mixed berry cough syrup in carbonated mineral water, maybe a little raw grain. Finish is mineral and fermenting corn. Palate is thin, watery, over carbonated and slightly acidic, the only indication by palate that it is a beer is the slightly dry finish. This beer is aweful, it really does just taste like somebody laced an aweful beer (Michelob Ultra I guess), or soda water even, with cough syrup, basically undrinkable for me. I really love the description, "Pilsner beer with natural flavor", I don’t think any of that is true.

fizzy pop head, smells OK, like a crappy belgium kreik. No flavor. But if you are hot, thirsty and low carbing, it’s OK

Bottle - A girl had this beer and I tried it. Did not pour, drank straight from the bottle. This is worst beer I have ever had in my life. It reminded me exactly of cough syrup. A beer should never, ever be this fruity. Even the girl hated it and had to pour it out if that tells you anything.

Pale yellow pour, lots of fruity raspberry in the aroma. Taste is fruity, light and very carbonated. Liked this one the least of the fruity Ultras.

Drain pour. this was one of the most disgusting beers i have ever drank. fortunately it was free. YUCK

Bottle. Very pale yellow in color, pure white foamy head. The aroma is all berry, no beer aromas. Flavor is almost all berry, almost no hops and malts are non existant. This is definitely not my beer of choice. Quenched my thirst, but thats it.

Pale in color, not really any head. Refreshing, a bit fruity as expected. Would probably drink it as a refreshing outdoor beverage, not so much winter-sipper.

Reviewed 3/5/2009 (bottle): Pours a huge foamy white head, quickly diminishing, with a very clear pale yellow colored body. Very strong raspberry and cherry (pomegranate?) aromas, very enticing. Some malts too, but very sweet smelling. Mmmm, cherries. Very cherry taste, some bitter raspberry, and dryness on the end. Somewhat cloying sweetness. Very fruity tasting, but simple, very cherry, and some raspberry. Refreshing, but very sweet.
