Production & Heritage

Anheuser-Busch, founded in 1852 in Saint Louis, Missouri, launched the Michelob Ultra Organic line as part of its push into better-for-you beer categories. The organic variants are brewed with USDA-certified organic ingredients, including pale two-row and Munich six-row barley, select grains, imported hops, and a pure cultured yeast strain. The beer is triple-filtered and brewed without artificial colors or flavors, resulting in a notably clean, light-bodied lager that distinguishes itself from the conventional Michelob Ultra through its organic grain sourcing and simplified ingredient list.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Subtle grain and light corn-like sweetness dominate the nose, with faint floral hop undertones. The aroma is restrained and clean, consistent with the organic light lager style.

Taste: The entry is crisp and highly carbonated, with a light doughy malt character that gradually gives way to a slightly sweet mid-palate as the beer warms. Hop bitterness is minimal, allowing the delicate grain character to lead. Subtle fruity notes emerge alongside the clean malt backbone.

Finish: Dry and brisk, with a refreshingly short finish that invites another sip. The carbonation carries through cleanly, leaving little residual sweetness.

How to Drink Michelob Ultra Organic

Best served chilled between 36–40°F in a pilsner glass or straight from the can. The light body and clean profile make it a natural warm-weather session beer. A Michelada works well here — the clean base lets the lime, hot sauce, and Clamato do the talking. A Beer Margarita (Beergarita) pairs the organic lager's crisp finish with frozen margarita mix for a lighter hybrid cocktail. A simple Shandy — half organic lager, half lemonade — highlights the beer's subtle sweetness without overwhelming it.

Best For

• Stocking a cooler for outdoor barbecues and summer gatherings
• Offering variety to health-conscious guests who prefer organic beverages
• Exploring multiple organic beer styles without committing to a single flavor
• Pairing with lighter fare like grilled chicken, fish tacos, or seasonal salads
