So I always hear Randi going on about Michelob Amber Bock

[Teddy_Salad]

....and because I've never tried it before I decided to seek it out at the supermarket today.

Well, I'm usually a fan of dark lagers but I'm a little indifferent to this one.
The way Randi goes on about it I thought it would blow my mind but it's a bit of a fizzog, to be truthfully honest.

I actually got more of a buzz out of being carded at the supermarket (I'm 37, with a beard and wrinkles) than I have from this beer.

Anyone tried this beverage who does like it?

1. It's probably just regular Michelob

with brown food coloring added.

[Magrittes Pipe]

2. It's good for what it is.

In other words, a mass-produced, Anheuser-Busch beer.

Not as bad as REGULAR Michelob, that's for goddamned sure. But not a real Bockbier, either.

3. I like it ...

when I'm in a bar where the only choices are Amber Bock, Miller Lite and Budweiser. If I have a better choice, I'll take something else, but it's a good 'go to' beer when we're in a place that thinks Bud Light is good beer.

4. This just goes to show

Celebreties should not endorse products.

5. It's a decent beer, for being mass-produced.

Seems better on draft though.

7. Hmmmmmm

Have never heard of that.

Maybe I should give that one a try.

9. It's from Texas, and not sold everywhere.

10. Thanks, GOPiE

My local beverage store has beers from all over so I will look when I visit there on Saturday.

I'd like to try this one.

15. Unless you're in Texas,

it won't be there :(

It's my favorite, especially on tap!

17. Actually, according to the Spoetzel site, its available all over the south

and west US. It might be exported abroad as well.

8. I prefer...

...Killian's Red or Guinness. I don't like Amber Bock much, but I'd order it if the only choice was a light beer.

[LisaM]

11. Ack! Don't drink Killian's!!! It's made by Coors.

I boycott anything made by Coors.

[Teddy_Salad]

12. I dunno, I quite liked their albums

;)

[LisaM]

14. Do you mean the CORRS?

Prouncounced "Carrs"?

[FleshCartoon]

13. I don't.

I love Killian's.

16. Don't Like It

It was the closest thing i could find to something i would drink when i was at a conference in Knoxville, TN. Didn't like it much.
