I know what you're thinking. "Why has he mispelt(sic) the word Bock in the title?" Well, you'll have to read the review to find the answer to that one, won't you? You know me, I'll drink any (and/or every) beer that I come across (now there's ...

Pros: Malty, chocolatey brew Cons: Not really a bock
In the early nineteen-eighties, the craft beer scene in the United States was in an embryonic state. There were imports to be found here and there, but the Empire did not consider these a threat. Indeed, the Empire exerted its own influence on the...
Dear Mr. August Busch: We, the members of the beer drinking public are very thankful that your company decided to break with its tradition of brewing American- style lager by launching the Michelob Specialty Beer product line. However, we are quite ...
Pros: It's drinkable Cons: Not a Bock, added rice, low in flavor
My first stop after work last night was at the pool hall. They are very mainstream in their selection but they did take my advice a while back in adding Boddingtons and Newcastle. However, having tried everything they had to offer I noticed an Amber Bock...
Pros: Good with food, more rounded than the normal offerings Cons: Lacking a good finish, honey hung on too long for me
Like so many others who have commented on this beer I have been harrassed and hassled into trying this particular beer because many seem to see this type of beer as the future of beer itself!!! I think that my friends see this as some kind of crossover...
Pros: More flavor than most macro-brewed domestics. Cons: Half-assed attempt at a true dark lager.
I've gone out of my way to applaud Michelob on its specialty line in the past. I think any time a large brewery such as Anheuser-Busch makes an effort to produce better beer, it should be commended. I'm a huge fan of Michelob's Honey Lager, and I've...
Pros: Dark beer for those who don't like dark beer Cons: Lacks in complexity, honesty
As with many of my beer reviews, I feel the need to start this Epinion endeavor with a personal confession. I simply do not enjoy Michelob beer in any of its usual incarnations, never have and never will. In my mind this only makes it that much more...
Pros: Great, rich flavor; available just about anywhere Cons: Not the absolute best, but among the best you can get almost anywhere
Michelob AmberBock is an Anheuser-Busch product, and as such, you won’t find too many beer snobs who will admit to liking it. I honestly believe that that the only “good” beers to most of those guys is the one that can only be found in ...
Pros: interesting change of pace, a good tasting beer Cons: maybe too sweet and too light; there are better beers for the money
Michelob has long been marketed by Anheuser-Busch as a premium beer, but a simple taste will not leave you very impressed and you’ll scratch your head wondering what makes it different from Budweiser.
Pros: Decent in comparrison to other AB products Cons: Rice, weak watery flavor
This beer is one of the Anheiser Busch attempts to get their share of the microbrew craze. With 60% of the entire beer market under their control, i'm not sure why they need to dip their dirty paws into the tiny share that craft brewers have, but they...
Pros: Cheap; decent dark brew Cons: Not a real bock; a bit thin and sweet
Michelob Amber Bock, like other beers marketed by Anheiser-Busch, is mass-produced and tastes like it. Here's a brew that will annoy "beer purists" to no end as it's thin, has no after taste and isn't even a real bock. Just imagine a typical...
Pros: You'll have no trouble finding it if you like it. Cons: Weak, watery swill.
An old friend of mine came to town today, and we headed out to have a couple of beers. So, off we went to Hooters. While that provided the backdrop for much hedonism and carrying on in our youth, we simply had lunch and some beer today and kicked back....
I enjoy light to medium bodied beers (I hate having to use a knife and fork to drink a beer) and I was initially a little leary of Michelob Amber Bock partly because the packaging is almost all black and the bottles are very dark too, which made me think...
