Taste Buds 083: The Amazing Macro Mystery Beer
From The Brewer: Hop Hound Amber Wheat from AB is an unfiltered amber wheat ale with a slight caramel sweetness and refreshing citrus note. It’s brewed with Cascade and Willamette hops from the Pacific Northwest and imported Hallertau hops from southern Germany. This amber wheat ale gets its tawny hue from a blend of the finest caramel, wheat and pale barley malts.
From Us: While in New Orleans Erik was forced to drink a premium beer because one location had no craft. He ended up drinking a Hop Hound from Michelob and was really impressed (hats off to Kristi Zantop) . Dusty had no clue what he was drinking, so watch the show to see what he thinks.

Sooner or later I think you had to feature a brew from the big macro companies. You can’t avoid the fact that they have a boat load of beer out there.
What you might want to do sometime is to do a blind taste test of craft pale lagers and just for fun throw in one of the macro beers in there and see how it rates. I bet you could pick out the macro beer from a crowd but it would be fun to see how it would rate.
