50 Back:
Greetings and salutations everyone and hope this finds y’all having a good Friday evening. Today we drink to salute our troops and we do it with a beer that supports our vets and their families. 50 Back is an American Lager that donates 50% of its proceeds to the aforementioned group and does it through beer. How cool is that? So, how does it taste? Well, it pours well, giving off a fruity/malty nose but an actual whiff of it is more akin to the nose of Fosters *shutter* or Bud Light. The head last all of about 30 seconds before dissipating into that white bubbly ring around the glass that most draft beers develop half way through the drinking process. After the nose, I was expecting a beer similar to a Bud or Bud Light but actually it was totally different, coming across like a lighter version of a hefeweizen with a citrus back. The taste quickly turns into a sweet rice flavor that is found in Budweiser and stays light on the tongue. Not a bad beer but not a good beer either, I would love to see this on tap some where or at least in bottle but, alas, none to my knowledge so far. So hug and thank a vet, buy them a round if they want one and buy yourself a 50 Back, do something good with your drinking.
