Ok, before I get a lot of crap for drinking a Budweiser, I want to say that I did it for TBN. I don't remember what episode it was in, but Justin was reading in the news that Bud was going to make a spiced holiday beer available only in kegs.
I was at a bar here in Kansas City that sports 99 taps. I was going to settle into a glass of Delirium Tremens when I saw a tap that I didn't recognize. It looked like it was topped with an orange baseball with a Mohawk. The server told me that it was the "New Special Keg Only Beer from Budweiser". I asked for a sample.
The color was lightly cloudy, light amber, and had tiny bubbles. The head was dense and white. It looked like a good homebrew.
The smell was perfumed from the spice, no malt, no hop. It was like when someone with far too much perfume walks thought the room right before you get there. Sort of a lingering off smell.
It didn't seem to have any flavor at all. Seriously. There was nothing bad about the beer, it was just...empty. It didn’t even have the normal Bud nastyness.
I looked across the table to my girlfriend, who was looking at me as if she expected me to go into a tirade about how much I didn't like it. I said "It's not bad, makes me want to drink a beer."
