Shock Top Belgian White

Brewed by Anheuser-Busch InBev
Style: Belgian White (Witbier)
St. Louis, Missouri USA

Pours a cloudy orange with a thin white head. The nose is full of citrus and hops. As you sip on it there is a mouthfull of orange peel with malt and hops. Overall it is a refreshing beer with good carbonation but very simple.

Poured from the tap into a platic cup. The color was amber almost orange color with a fomay white head. The smell was fruity but muted. Some orange and lemon. The taste was fruity, some citrus flavor, orange, and some grapefruit feel. Some pepper taste to it as well as a malty hint in the background. The review for this beer may have been better had the way I was presented this beer had beer better. Having any beer for the first time while it is in a platic cup is not the best way to tasts test so I will revise my review in the future.

Bottle. Not as bad as I would have expected from a macro. I would actually buy this again. Refreshing and a good value.

Pours a decent cloudy pale orange with a lingering frothy white had. Aroma citrusy but blindsided by a nasty grainy note that overwhelms the wheat and fruity character. Flavor starts with a burst of fruity sweetness, citrus, orange with just a little bit of spice, though maybe I am imagining it. Gets slightly more wheaty and finishes with a mix of the wheat and citrus with very little aftertaste. Light to medium body and an active carbonation. Definitely not that good but not as bad as I was expecting, decent wheat and fruit and fairly refreshing.

I love the way this beer smells, looks and tastes. It is also pretty cheap and readily available. Nice citrusy smell and taste. The citrus is not over empowering, have only had this in from a bottle and usually pour it into a weizen glass that helps pull the aroma to your nose. It is not too thick, but is definitely thicker than most Michelob beers I have tasted.

On tap at Jumby Bay (West Palm, FL): Aroma of citrus and liquid bread. Fizzy taste that overwhelms anything else. Nothing else. Not much to say about this one...it sucks...but hey, it’s an American macro imitating a Belgium style, so what else can you expect...

Not a bad beer from our pals at Michelob/A-B. Pretty typical somewhat lightened up American version of a witbier.

Poured a cloudy dark yellow with moderate white head. Aroma of sweet citrus, spice and hint of malt. Refreshing on a hot summer day. Not up to par with other macro witbier wannabees.
