  • Busch Light

    On sale, this is a decent buy, but not my preferred way to spend my money, not by any means. Not a beer for presentation, nor to impress anyone, this beer belongs alongside PBR and its very close bro, "Natty". This brew lacks in every respect, however it is still worth buying on sale for a night of flippy cup or P & A.

    Miracles do happen! This was the first beer I ever drank, and somehow, I still thoroughly enjoy beer. This however was a rough, rough experience which I have only repeated when I was not the one filling the cooler. I distinctly remember the taste of overripe (rotten) bananas and for once, overcarbonation. Skunky and unpleasant, don't waste your time, if you want macro go with anything else.

    While not my favorite stout, after sampling this in a pub in London, I can understand the obsession. This was delicious with all the characteristics that have made Guinness so well known, the deep color, persistent head with unparalled lacing. Yet while creamy and filling, there are more rewarding brews out there (of which you can drink more than two), especially in England, or even Ireland for that matter. Still, when fresh, definately worth the effort (as long as its not in a poorly travelled can).

  • Guinness Draught (Can)

    Prepare to be offened, Guinness lovers, as I was disappointed by all eight cans I had. Given the reviews I've read, this must have been a very old/poorly stored batch. The beer was grainy in texture and tasted like charcoal. I have also had this on tap (in London) and it was smooth, creamy, filling and delightful, however, this beer must travel very, very poorly. Sorry, Guinness fanatics.

  • Boulevard Wheat Beer
    rated 4.5 19 years ago

    All hail the champion of our cause! If you want to expose your friends to craft beer, this is the one way to do it. This is light, but complex, a beautifully balanced, colored and rewarding brew. Still one of my all-time favorites. A fresher, more complex and grassy/citrusy flavor than Schlafly, Sierra Nevada or Sunshine. Cloudy and golden this is refreshing and very, very drinkable. On tap or in a well-carbonated batch of bottles this is outstanding! Possibly eclipsed by the masterfully crafted Cow Town Wheat by 75th Street Brewery. No lemon!

  • Miller High Life Light
    rated 1.4 19 years ago

    Aroma: 3 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

    Great price in St. Louis, that is to say, the best price. Good yard beer, but not my favorite. Hard for me to tell the difference between this and High Life. Out of a bottle this is still watery but rarely skunky and tolerable taste. This is my roommates favorite beer (crazy cheap). And he says it pretty well; that out of the bottle this tastes like "beer soda". A wannabe beer that sure isn't real beer, but is a drinkable pretender that I would take out my buddy's cooler while catching dinner on my old spin-caster, but never buy myself nor take to the dinner table.

  • Schlafly Dry Hopped APA
    rated 4.4 19 years ago

    Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 9 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 9 | Overall: 9

    Better than Fat Tire, which I do like. Seems like there is more Hop character and fruitier undertones, with even a better bite. Just better on every level. This may well be my favorite beer I've yet had, and is certainly the best offering by Schlafly, for those of us not enamored of Porters and Stouts (though the Oatmeal Stout is creamy and delicious, but that's another story). Somehow this is an improvement their wonderful pale ale. Find this beer, drink this beer, enjoy, then by lots more of this fine American Amber Ale. RERATE: On cask, it looks and smells even better. RE-RERATE: Now that they're dry-hopping the hell out of this, things have MUCH improved, a true delight!

  • Keystone Light
    rated 1.0 19 years ago

    Aroma: 2 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2

    The only redeeming quality of this is that its alcoholic. Its cheap, but still not worth it. I'd much rather have PBR or Stag for the same price. Watery, tasteless and hard to drink. Don't waste your time.

  • Olympia Gold Light

    Aroma: 2 | Appearance: 2 | Mouthfeel: 2 | Flavor: 2 | Overall: 2

    Not even worth the 5.29 I paid for 12 cans. I am even hesitatnt to cook brats in this crap. Tie for the worst beer I've had between this and Keystone Light.

  • Pilsner Urquell
    rated 4.4 19 years ago

    Aroma: 9 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 9 | Flavor: 10 | Overall: 9

    I had this on spring break in Prague, and I had it everywhere. It was everywhere, as if it were Bud Light in the Czech Republic, and that sure made me want to be Czech. Pours a fluffy, white head with lacing a good bite, great taste and a beautiful bright yellow color. Once again the taste did not come across as complex to me, but it was fantasic and fresh. My tastings stateside have been good, but not as wonderful as the glorius Czech experience that this beer can be. This is my favorite mass-produced beer.
