Budweiser Select 55
Budweiser Select 55 appeared in 2009 as a low-strength companion to Budweiser Select, a golden lager brewed from lightly toasted two-row barley malt and roasted caramel malt with a blend of imported and domestic hops. The wort carries far fewer fermentable sugars than a standard lager, which keeps the body very thin. It pours pale gold with a short-lived head; the aroma is faint grain with a whiff of honeyed malt, and the palate is light and slightly bready, finishing crisp, clean and nearly dry.
