Notes:
Brewed using the finest barley malt, select grains, all-imported hops and a pure-cultured yeast strain. The special choice of grains combined with the extended mashing process produces a smooth, refreshing beer with fewer carbohydrates.

Pours light with fizzy slight head. Crisp and light lager “beer” at only 4.2% ABV. Bottomless brew at Happy Face Simi Valley music festival- better than sparkling water? Bottoms up - cheers!

Drunk during my trip to Silao (Guanajuato, México). Normal bottle.
Look - pale yellow and translucid with a 2 cm. white head and leaving traces.
Smell - citric and grain.
Taste - citric taste, but also light taste
Feel - light body with a medium carbonation
Ovearll - normal brew.

Look is pale straw which I expect with a super light beer. Smell of sweet corn mash. Drank a number of these to be able to accept the taste. Very light watery feel. Honestly I drink more of this than regular beer because calories and carbs. I can think of worse beers to drink.

I was out with friends and I'd already enjoyed my first beer by the time dinner arrived, so I ordered an Ultra for my second since several others at the table had ordered this. The best way I can describe this is beer flavored White Claw. I'm not sure why so many people drank 2 or 3 of these with dinner. I'd much rather sip a good beer than down multiple of these.

Unlike some other pretentious beer snobs I'll give this a fair rating. Light lagers are the backbone of the common beer drinker. Nothing beats the refreshing cold crisp taste of a light beer on a hot summer day golfing. When I'm not drinking “real” beers, my go to crusher is Mic Ultra.

Overpriced for a domestic light, light beer. Good for hot days though. This beer don’t look right in a manly man’s hand or butch lesbians. The bottles maybe but not the slim line cans.

Organic Michelob Ultra Gold is my favorite beer, but Michelob Ultra is just okay and a very different product, despite the similar name. It tastes "dirtier" than Gold and has GMOs. I am a sucker for extra light, ice-cold lagers, and the 4.2 alcohol and 2.6 carbs are pretty cool for a mainstream beer. I avoid GMOs at all costs, and my Instacart shopper got this by mistake, and it's the only reason I'm reviewing it. Stick with Michelob Ultra Gold if you appreciate a very light, athlete-friendly lager, and skip this beer.

Not undrinkable if it’s cold enough. Pretty much crap when it’s not.
