Budweiser Black Crown brewed by Anheuser-Busch.The brew pours out a nice amber color with a small white head. This brew has an ABV of 6.0 but it goes down real smooth . The smell is the same as american style beer. The taste is heavy with a lot of flavor. This brew is really filling. Nothing Bad about this brew. Over all I give this beer a 4 out of 5.

Of course as soon as I find the perfect beer that is like a sweet refreshing nectar at the end of the day, they take it off the shelf and stop making it. This beer was so good... Yet they will stock some nasty *ss bud platinum to the ceiling and let it collect dust... Please oh please bring this back. I beg like on my knees beg and pray that they would start brewing this again... Sincerely... Brett

I miss this beer so much, I've tried to craft it myself, nothing comes close to that bold Carmel flavor that Budweiser produced. I wish it would come back.

This is another beer that I had a few years ago & since Budweiser is a popular brand I decided to give it a review. It actually drank a like a pretty good amber lager, no complaints there. Cheers! C

This was marketed as a premium beer, like a Red Wolf/Dog 2.0 of sorts. Pours like a color and consistency of Killian's that thin bodied but amber/red in color appearance with a big at first but settling into a 1/5" off white head. Aroma of that Killians's lager vibe.
On the one hand, it doesn't get bogged down in that heavy earthy red malt feel and aftertaste, but on the other, its like it had food coloring added to it, partially due to the seemingly excessive carbonation that accompanied the beer. Weird they basically took the same branding for this beer and crossed it over to bud light platinum. I dunno were they trying to go for some of the Yuengling/Killian's market share or what, but I don't think it worked out for them.

I tried it. Not bad. If I want a red lager, I like Yeungling better, but it is a fair contendr. Where the hell to find it here and now, I don't know.

Not much to explain pretty basic flavorless light beer.
