KRC Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I tried it. Not sure what they changed but it tasted like sh------- Budweiser to me. 698362[/snapback] What color is it (piss-yellow Bud color or more of an pale/amber color)? If it tasted like Bud, then they probably used the same hop blend and just adjusted the grain bill.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 That sucks. I have enjoyed a Rolling Rock or a thousand over the years. Once I was in a bar in Savannah, Goergia, and I asked for a Rolling Rock. They looked at me like I was from Mars.
X. Benedict Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I tried it. Not sure what they changed but it tasted like sh------- Budweiser to me. 698362[/snapback] The same thing happened to me, and then I said "Damn, I got tricked into trying a Bud product."
Mark VI Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 Pissweiser ruins beer. 20 different kinds of swill. With Sam Adams, various belgian beers and microbrews a plenty, why would anyone settle for bad beer ?

With Sam Adams, various belgian beers and microbrews a plenty, why would anyone settle for bad beer ? 698371[/snapback] Because Budweiser is funny. Very funny. Their ads always make me laugh. Therefore, I must drink their beer.
RuntheDamnBall Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I've moved on, but the Rock was indeed a fine college and summer party brew of choice. Now it's all Hefeweizens and Brooklyn Pennant Ale. BTW, anybody here tried Ayinger's beers? They brew some amazing stuff.

HopsGuy Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 I have never had the Select, but I am guessing that it is their way of trying to compete with the craft brew market while still appealing to as many people as possible. The craft brew market is increasing and the BMC's (Bud, Miller, Coors) are taking notice. My guess would be that Select gets rid of the rice that they normally use in Bud and sticks to mainly a malted barley grain bill and then they bump up the hops a bit (to the point where you might actually taste them ). 698359[/snapback] Either that, or they wanted to squeeze a few more dollars out of that Budweiser Dry formula?
