Michelob Ultra Fruit Pomegranate Raspberry
Anheuser-Busch

 

 

Neighbor offered at a block party.

Look - From the bottle, clear golden with a small fizzy cap on top.

Smell - Weakly grainy with the namesake fruits in moderate amounts.

Taste - Grains turn up, rice adjunct becomes more apparent. Fruits stay moderate.

Feel - Watery light body with a spritzy carbonation. Swallows clean and finishes rapidly.

Overall - Was exactly what I was expecting. Michelob Ultra in itself is useless. More expensive than high life, with less flavor and alcohol. This variation is better than the base beer due to the added fruit aspects. Can't complain.

 

 

 

 

Drain-pour!

 

 

 

 

Sigh . . . why did I do this. Hmm . . . So that doesn't count as a proper review. Well, it looks like yellow water with raspberry flavoring added what is necessary.

 

 

 

I like it. Its a good go to during the summer or just wanna crush through a few.

 

What the what?!?! Who thought this up?!?!?! Disgusting! I am not against fruit flavors in my beer, but this does not work on any level. The flavors clash like a train derailing on my taste buds.

Would Drink Again: No
Would Purchase Again: No

 

 

 

 

My wife picked this up for herself. I tried one. Worst thing I've ever tasted. First sip tasted like slightly fruited seltzer water. Then the fruit went away (quickly) and I was left with a tingle as if I just drank plain seltzer or Club soda. Vile stuff! I don't drink those flavored sparkling waters or Vitamin water etc, but I imagine this is what they taste like. I would have rated this 1 but gave a little extra for at least having a tiny bit or fruit aroma. Barely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Light fruity beers are not for everyone. Personally, I can't stand hoppy bitter beers and that seems to be the trend with craft brewers in the US. I prefer lighter sweeter beers. Michelob's Pomegranate Rasberry beer has been my favorite staple beer for years! I love this beer! It's light, sweet and refreshing. Perfect for hot summer days. If I am camping or at a friend's BBQ and plan to be drinking for hours on end, this is the beer I bring. Most hard core beer snobs will cringe at this, but I love to add orange juice and make a beermosa with this beer. Like I said, this beer isn't for everyone and I expect many to turn their nose up at any beer than is light and sweet, but if this is the style your taste buds prefer you will enjoy it.

Sampled tonight on 5/25/14. Bottle chilled down to 36 degrees F in my beer cooler and poured into a vintage Michelob thumbprint glass goblet.

Pours a very light straw yellow in color with a very small fizzy white head. No lacing is seen to mention. The aroma is better than the taste and is of some sweet fruits. The taste is well...really bad! Like drinking a lightly flavored club soda or seltzer water. Way to much carbonation, and even more than other Bud products. Overall, I will not be drinking this one again!
