I work at a liquor store and got a 24oz can of this for a dollar...how can you go wrong. I haven't had this beer in forever, but even though it's not a craft beer, I'll still give it an unbiased review.

poured from 24oz can into a Kronenbourg 16oz Pilsner glass

Appearance- Very clear, pale yellow color. You can read a book through this beer. bigger bubbles in the head, which doesn't stick around. Dies down to literally no head unless I swirl it around. No lacing.

Smell- has a sweet malty adjunct smell. Bit of corn.

Taste- It's been a while since I've had a beer as light as this. Has a full flavor of sweet malt, corn, and hops. Acidic and lightly metallic. Very light on the hops, not a distint flavor, just light bitterness which mixes with the alcohol taste. It's a very simple beer; a light biscuity-corn flavor, alcohol, and hops.

Mouthfeel- thicker feel than it looks, but it's very standard.

Overall- Not disappointing, I knew what i was getting into here, but a dollar for a big can, I'll take it. I'd bring a few of these to a party, although I'd probably choose Yuengling over this. I hesitate to call it "smooth" because there are so many good beers out there that are more complex and much higher ABV that are more tasty and drinkable.

look: 3 | smell: 2.25 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.75

A: Light and limpid yellow body, a thin white head when serving in its right temperature.

S: Almost without smell, a faint malt smell can be detected.

T: Some malts can be feeled, but almost no hops at all, like the nose the taste is too faint.

M: Refreshing, with some sweetness and low bitterness, nothing special.

O: Another American Adjunct lager perfect as a session beer in hot days, but if you look for something special and complex: avoid Budweiser!

look: 2 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5

A - super pale and golden with a couple fingers of fluffy head that quickly go away. Completely devoid of lacing.

S - mostly grass, a little bit of sweetness, and the signature Budweiser yeast.

T/M - corn and grain. Clean, crisp finish.

O - Pretty drinkable. I'm not sure why, but I really like the Budweiser yeast.
