Beer-a-Day #200
I am in the midst of a two-week (or so) stretch of drinking macro lagers. It seems appropriate then at this milestone to have the King of Beers®.
This is the famous Budweiser beer. We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive Beechwood Aging produces a taste, a smoothness, and a drinkability you will find in no other beer at any price.
I used to have that little speech memorized.
The can still opens with that classic “pss-ch-kok!” that I remember. Pale yellow with a big white head that dissipates quickly. Smells like lavender dish soap. There’s a beer in there, but it tastes vaguely of boiled vegetables. I wouldn’t exactly rate it a one on the Unofficial Hop Talk beer rating system, but it’s pretty close.
Lavender dish soap and boiled vegetables!
What a description. Is that flowery beer critic’s language for saying “It’s just nasty dishwater”??!
Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I’m trying to keep an open mind and not let my beer prejudices get the better of me, but it was pretty bad.
