There is nothing better than dirnking BudDry at Party Cove @ The Lake of The Ozarks. Still the best beer even with some lake water in the can, maybe even better. Speaking of the can, is there any better can out on the market...Not a Chance. All the A-B cans from the early 90s are the best cans ever made.
While I’ll admit that Bud Dry is bland, there’s something about it that’s refreshing. It’s enjoyable to drink, especially with a salad. It’s alcohol content is on the high side, so that might be what appeals to me. I find this is one of the better of the Budweiser line of beers. Bud Light is utter trash compared to this beer, by the way.

One pint can poured into my gullet by way of shaker- poured transparent yellow with tints of copper, medium carbonation, bubbly white head came and went but actually laced a little (I’m shocked). Aroma of white corn, wet alfalfa, and perhaps one single hop used in the entire mashton. Hits the mouth with a thin and watery body, corn is easily apparent, no malt what so ever, finishes wet like water and not dry like it’s name. I know that brew is not award winning, but for 5 bucks out the door for a 6’er compared to some of the recent laments about good beers ($40+ for AS, ha ha ha...), I can buy a case of this, invite some freaks and cougars over, have a great night, and still have some green left in my pocket. For that reason alone, it’s a solid 5 out of 20 for me. You got suckered, sucka.
Very neutral beer. Doesn’t taste good or bad. You can’t hate something that doesn’t offend you, so it just exists.
watchin the game swillin bud in my traler park caravan. thoses dam yuppies aint buyin th land for freeways .
Aroma: A joke
Appearance: Like a poor man’s Bud Light
Flavor: You must be kidding
Palate: No words
Overall Impression:
I promise, you won’t enjoy this one. It’s terrible, even for a Bud. Aroma? Flavor? Ha! Try watery crappy NASCAR Beer.
Whoa, this beer is clear. Basically, it is next to water. This beer just had a very nasty aroma as well. I thnk I am going to leave the score the way it is. I think this beer is the lowest of low. I was surpised to see it. Not a very good flavor either. Um, not much to say other than this beer will get you drunk, but for other uses such as taste, it is useless.
No, I did not buy this. That being said, I literally tasted nothing while drinking this brew. Very smooth and very not beer. I have to say that I liked this a bit more than bud light or regular but that is just because those beers have bad flavors and this one has none. Anheuser has finally gone to the point to where they produce beer that tastes even more like nothing. This beer gets a 2 on overall impression for the sole reason that it doesn’t taste like crap because it doesn’t taste, period. Damn amazing!
Why ask why? Because this beer stinks. I would ask why someone forced me to drink this crud.
Why ask why? If its the last thing you do on this earth, please do not try Bud Dry!
Used to drink this by the 30 pack as it was cheap. Resampled and it is thin watery and generally not good. Not as sweet as Bud Light or Bud, but not much better.
Bud Dry was a big craze until people realized it didn’t taste good. Marketing sells and it doeasn’t matter that it isclear, watery and no taste.
599 a sixer. i got what i expected. i like the finish better than bud light but this beer is interchangeable with any of the mass produced pale lagers. will drink again because its not expensive. just nothing special. i cant believe i have never had this until now. and i live in st louis and its not available in alot of places.
12oz bottle-pours a foamy white head and yellow color. Aroma is grain/husky, slight hops. Taste is thin grain/husky, slight hops. OK carbonation. This is my impression after first two sips. 2.3 by end of the 12 oz, it deteriorates to 1.9
Bottle. Sour slightly skunky barley malt aroma. Pale yellow color with moderate head. Very light barley malt flavor with the slightest hint of hops. I thought the dry beer craze died out 20 years ago but apparently this is still hanging on for some reason - probably for those who can’t tolerate the strong, overwhelming flavor of regular Bud.
32oz bottle. Finally, the phantasmic bud dry awaits. Yes, I would take this over Bud any day. Finishes dry. reminds me of PBR but a little cleaner. Take bud and eliminate much of its already incredibly light flavor. It feels wrong to say this, but that’s really not such a bad idea. If it doesn’t taste good, why taste it at all?
Looks, smells and tastes like piss, a true Anheuser Busch trifecta...drink this if sticking your finger down your throat doesn’t do the job.
Just another bud with a different name. It was just O, I can’t even give it the K, I mean I don’t like bud any how but I had to try this one just to see if it was was it was.
Why ask why, try Bud Dry? Well I wish I did ask why and then punched Dry in the face afterwards looking for my money back.
Wow, is it the Mid 80’s still? Why is the stuff still around? What the hell does "dry brewed" mean? So many questions, yet such a pissy brew. I heard this replaced Bud Ice...not sure which is worse.
I just remember that tacky tagline, "why ask why, try Bud Dry." Well there you go, the secret behind AB complete marketing program. Once again telling you what to drink American public, don’t ask why. This is garbage, light, bland and watered down.
A forgotten gem.(yeah, not really)..man I never drank this when it was free. I would rather go completely "DRY" than drink this pisswater. Forget about it.
Bottle. Light fizzy yellow color with no head. Not much flavor. Just CO2, bitter, and water. Dry bitter finish. It is a bud without the adjunct taste. Tastes like seltzer water. Blah.
12oz can was an extra from Mrthirstyneck - thanks, Shane. The only thing shite like this is good for is slamming after a vigorous workout. That’s what I did and the rapid transit between can and mouth ensured that this beer didn’t have time to be truly offensive.
Why ask why? I ask why anyone would ever drink this garbage. It has the sensual aroma of a porta potty and tastes like buttermilk that sat out for too long.
32oz bottle-Pours a clear golden body with a big white head and an aroma of corn. Taste of the same. Why still make this. This is ASS dry.
This is bad, and oddly enough, not dry! Why would anybody ever drink this swill?...then again why ask why?
cans from Friar Tuck’s. For some reason, can never seem to find this one. Pour is nearly clear, taste is old creamed corn and doesn’t finish nearly as dry as I’d like. Pretty vile stuff.
Can. Pours a golden yellow with a thin white head. Flavor is of malt and corn. The aroma is much the same, but is a little sweeter. For being inexpensive it isn’t half bad, but it isn’t something I would drink regularly as there are better choices. I wish the alcohol content was higher though.
It’s okay. Had it for the first time this last week-end. Not bad but not great either.
