So I'm watching some Sunday afternoon football with Jesse, and a commercial comes on that catches my eye. It's for Bud Light Golden Wheat. What is Bud Light Golden Wheat you ask? Well, I have no idea. But I am about as excited as a keg in a Kroger on a Friday night. As a fan of wheat beer (meaning German-style like Widmer or a Hefeweizen, not Belgian-style like Shock Top or Blue Moon), this could open up a new opportunity for tasty (good) yet cheap (even gooder) Thurday, Friday, and Saturday evenings. And Sunday afternoons. And possibly Tuesdays by myself in my room. Apparently the "beer will use unfiltered wheat so it will look cloudier than its Bud Light counterpart and will have orange and coriander, also known as cilantro, as ingredients to give it a bigger, sweeter taste" (Bizjournals.com). I was under the impression cilantro was...well, cilantro. The green crap that tastes like pretty much nothing and is thrown all over Mexican food like sprinkles. And I don't know what the hell oranges are doing in there. Sounds like this thing might already be going in the wrong direction, but I can't help but get excited anyway. Let's hope the former American King of Beers does this one right.
Also, those Bud Light cans in school colors are kind of badass.
