Well, it’s a beer. I swear to God, Allah, Buddha, Zeus, and Judas Priest on that, but no one else. Every week I bowl, and every week I am confronted with two options for draft beer, Bud Light or AmberBock. Between these two evils I routinely choose the latter.
I wouldn’t say it’s a full body beer, but it’s hearty enough. I have found if you drink enough of it, it becomes a full body beer. The taste is unrefined, and bland. As a product of Michelob this is no big surprise. When they come out with an AmberBock Ultra sign me up, clearly it will be divine.
AmberBock is like a scab that is starting to fall off. At first you think ‘oh, no, I better just leave it alone,’ but we both know that doesn’t last long. Eventually you start picking at it (drinking), and picking at it, and figure when it’s all done things will be much better. Sure the process isn’t pleasant, and there is a little blood (normally in both cases), but you are grateful for the end result, blotto and scab free.

If you drink at a bowling alley- you have no business reviewing beer. PERIOD. Amber Bock may not be the greatest lager in the world, but it IS the best American lager, and has the awards to prove it. So put out your cigarette, exit the bowling alley, grow some taste buds, then get back to us.
