Budweiser American Ale Review

[leafandale]

OK, it's not a fancy import or the latest concoction from a tiny hole-in-the-wall brewery. It's a micro wanna-be from Anheuser Busch. But it's actually a pretty good beer. I review it on my blog at

Feel free to offer your opinions as well.

Just had a few tonight. I like it. Its not going to blow anybody away. but it has a good taste and they go down rather smooth.

Thanks for this, I've been wanting to try it. I need to try and find a 6 pack, I don't want to spend the money for more until I try it.

I was drinking it in a bar in LA, and the bartender could tell by my face that I was hating it, and he ending up serving me a few other beers.

I just thought it was a horrible tasting beer. I know its from bud, but still... they should stick to making pee water.

Thanks Mike. I'll have to give this a try even though I normally probably wouldn't.

I know it's a tough call for beer enthusiasts... especially when the word "Budweiser" is prominantly displayed on the front of the bottle. I think most who wouldn't normally try it will be suprised. It's Michelob priced, so if beer lovers are pinching pennies, $5.99 a six pack makes it worth a look. Sammy Smith it's not. But it's not $12.00 a whack, either.

Thanks for the review! I actually got to sample some of this a little while ago, pre-release, at a wine festival. I remember it being surprisingly good but I had so much wine on the palate I couldn't be sure.

Flavor/Taste: 8 (very enjoyable, easy drinking)

I had a few last night with a friend, and he expressed the same sentiment. While I did find it to be easy drinking, I can't say that it was particularly delicious. I'd describe it as a good alternative to bud light. Easy drinking, but with a very light flavor (as opposed to almost no flavor unless skunked). I'll buy bud light when I'm having a party because thats all some people drink. Perhaps this will offer me, and them, a superior alternative.

Heard very little about it .I will not try it since the Belgium's took it over that was our last major Brewery,Left a really bad taste in my mouth even before i drank it.Thats just my 2 cents...

[Doogie]

[Redbeard]

yes, i agree with this as well

Interesting. I really get the point about it being nice to be able to get an inexpensive, readily available craft beer but, I can get several (Sam Adams, Smuttynose, Harpoon, Long Trail etc...) REAL craft beers for that price ($5.99/ six pack)
