Michelob Amber Bock

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: Um...
Cons: In under 15 words? No chance.

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: 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: Tastes great, smooth, looks good
Cons: hard to find cans

Amber Bock tastes great and looks good. Its not as dark as your Giniuess, which I think tastes like tar. Amber bock looks dark, but tasts smooth with no after taste at all. You don't have to worry about the beer face. Give it a try if you like...

Pros: Extremely smooth and good tasting. Great served cold.
Cons: Could have more character

Rarely do I drink anything from the Michelob Specialty Brewing Group that I do not like, and this one is no exception. Great Texas style bock (not be confused with German bock). Rarely are malty brews as smooth as Amber Bock, and Amber Bock is certainly...

Pros: Excellent Flavor, No After-Taste, Decent Price
Cons: Perhaps a LITTLE bit light, compared to other American Darks

While I prefer a slightly stronger flavor in a bock beer, Michelob Amber Bock really is very well balanced. Many dark brews will leave you wanting water to wash the after-taste away, Amber Bock does not.

Overall, compared to our local Bock...

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....

Pros: Smooth and refreshing
Cons: Somewhat Filling

While I am not a great expert on beer, I do notice when a different or new product is introduced. I was in the liquor store looking to buy some Miller Lite before the first round of the NFL playoffs started when a beer I had not see before caught my...

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: Bold rich taste
Cons: I haven't found any

Someone has really went all out when they decided to make this beer! Amber Bock surprised me with how good it tastes. I am very impressed that an American beer actually tastes almost as good as Guinness Stout. That is so amazing!

It has a...

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.

Michelob Amber Bock, however, is a...

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...

Pros: Flavor, Color, Price
Cons: None

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...

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: Cheaper than Other Craft Beer
Cons: Rice

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 ...
