Michelob Ultra Pomegranate Raspberry

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

The wife and daughter like Mic Ultra so I got a 12 pk for them and so I could get this over with and try these 3. This one had a very sweet(berry or cherry?) aroma. Flavor was more of a sweet soda with alittle Mic Ultra added to it. No need to try again.

7/12/2008: I will start by going on the record to say that this beer isn’t all that horrible. That being said, let me qualify that comment before a get roasted by somebody for this opinion... I don’t hate fruit beers and actually really enjoy them if properly done. Michelob Ultra Pomegranate Raspberry isn’t great by any stretch, but for a macro, mass-produced, fruit-flavored beer, it really isn’t that bad. It actually tastes a lot less fake than I had originally anticipated and they did a pretty good job of keeping the fruitiness in check. This beer has the same transparant, pale champagne as most light beers and it is generously carbonated. The aroma has fresh raspberry and that dry pome/cranberry-esque quality (pomegranate doesn’t really present a discreet aroma for me). The flavor has a slightly powdery raspberry in the front along with a trace amount of that difficult-to-describe pomegranate fruitiness and dryness. A soft light beer flavor can be found in the mid-palate. The finish has the typical graininess and the fruit flavors linger. This beer could have been a lot more horrible that in actually is. My wife and mother really seemed to enjoy it. I guess that’s what counts to some degree!

12 fl. oz. clear twist-off bottle (4.2% Alc./Vol.) from my mother. Rating #83 for this beer...

Put a bottle of this in a "make your own sixpack" from a local grocery. Pours a clear pale yellow body with a quickly vanishing, tiny white head. Aroma of Raspberry Pez candy. Tastes like seltzer water lightly flavored with Pez or Jolly Rancher artificial fruitiness. Fruity sweetness is not overly done, to its credit, but why even bother! Maybe a good beginner beverage for someone that’s never been exposed to a drink containing alcohol. Not even a decent lawnmower potable.

Sampled in the BrewMaster’s Club at Busch Gardens Williamsburg on 07/10/2008. From bottle. Very clear very pale yellow body with a small off-white head. Big imitation rasperry aroma with hints of what might be pomegranate. Grainy flavor with light raspberry hints. Medium light body with high carbonation.

Raspberry and pomegranate sparkling mineral water with food coloring. Might be appropriate for a seven year old girl.

Bottle from a buddys girlfriend, not at all that bad. Pretty artificial tasting but very fruity. Almost like a Koolaid. not bad but I would probaby never buy

I absolutely love this beer!!!! But it’s so hard to find. Please sell it at more location in the DFW metroplex. Thanks!

Bottle. Pours light gold with a fizzy white head. Aroma is fruity as well, raspberry for sure, and a hint of pomegranate. Thin body. Flavor is artificial fruit. Raspberry and pomegranate? Sure, why not. Hey, at least it’s drinkable. That being said, I will never have one of these again.
