Bud Light Golden Wheat

Wow. Don't get overly excited, it's not the greatest, but it was definitely a pleasant surprise. I can definitely attest to the lighter taste and less filling nature of Bud Light Golden Wheat - at least compared to Budweiser Select. I feel like this beer actually lives up to its name of being light, but unlike most light beers, there is definitely taste in this beer - a welcomed change. Unlike some of the other Budweiser brand beers, this beer is actually something I would drink again, maybe even offer it to other people when they came over for a drink in the summer time. However, the beer is not good enough to make it into my regular rotation, however, there is no harm in picking up a pack or two and mixing it into the cooler full of ice you keep near the grill on a summer afternoon. Other than that, I really would not recommend this beer for regular consumption, ad definitely not outside the summer season (unless unseasonably warm). On a complete side note, really hate the damn orange bottle cap and stupid swirl on the label, make me feel like I am drinking some sort of magical concoction or a tropical fruit drink. Hint to Budweiser: drop the swirl! Let the beer sell itself, there really is no need for the extra gimmick.

Final Verdict: Surprisingly not bad. Definitely can drink it again in the summertime.
