90 Budweiser Prohibition Brew United States Reduced Alcohol 1.3

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

Can. Colour - clear straw yellow, huge frothy white head that disappears faster than a lightning strike, and no lacing. Aroma - weak grains and vomit (that could just be bad memories of years of late nights after swill). Mouthfeel - weak bodied, well carbonated, buut more watery than crisp. Flavour - weak wet grass and a hint of a bitter hop finish. I know the ads say it actually tastes like beer.....but it doesn't.

95 Busch NA United States Reduced Alcohol 1.7

Aroma: 5 | Appearance: 3 | Mouthfeel: 3 | Flavor: 3 | Overall: 3

I was gagged with this brew. Although if the beer has no alcohol in it, was actually brewed? I have to admit it didn't taste that bad at first, a watered down Labatt Blue was my thought
