    Last week I opened my only Batch 3 of AR (traded the others) at a share. Something I do with bottles that are bottle conditioned after they're empty is look inside them just to see how much sediment there is. With this particular AR there was no sediment. Out of all the ARs I have had, mine or someone else's, there has been sediment. Why wouldn't there be with this particular bottle? It was still very good and a lot of the raspberry jammyness remained. I also thought bottle conditioned beers had to have sediment as that is what conditioned the beer. Someone take me to school and tell me what's up. Thanks!

    You don't need that much yeast to carbonate a beer. Could have been a small amount of sediment that was mixed up while pouring.

    You probably just got the bottle mixed up with the Bud Straw-birita. It happens.

    Ah, makes sense, especially at a share where the bottle is being poured so much.

    True, I always like to have fruited Budweisers as palate cleansers.

    This would be my guess. - Jeff
