Budweiser



















Name: Budweiser
Manufacturer: Budweiser
Country: Great Britain (...)
Media: bottle
Type: pilsner

Appearance: High, frothy head, fully diminishing, yellow color (looks like apple juice)

Aroma: OK, let's be frank, it smells like a pilsner, no more, no less.

Flavor: I just can't do this. It's a bland pilsner, with a hint of lemon as its (almost) saving grace.

Palate: watery, lively carbonation which dies off quite fast

Overall: No! No! No!

Grade: 3 (OK, so there are things imaginable which might be worse)

Place/date: Björkeberga, in the south of Sweden - 10 August 2009
