Ale Wagger is comparable to other brown ales in taste and drinkability. In short, it’s goo-ood. It’s distinctly bodied, a very smooth drink that could accompany a nice ribeye at dinner or a weenie by the pool for the summertime cookouts – a super versatile beer.
Ale Wagger has a malty sweetness to it, and is pretty mild on the hop bitterness.
For the average Bud-Light drinker, Ale Wagger might be a welcomed shift towards a different kind of beer. (We’re not picking on Bud Light drinkers when we say this, by the way. We just have friends that preferred light beer, and these are the beers we’ve recommended to them and got good feedback.)
Ale Wagger is a great balance of crisp, refreshing, and clean on the tongue with little to no aftertaste.
I gave this beer a 3 star because I like it a lot. It’s a good, bodied beer that can hold up to a plate of hearty food.
Ale Wagger has a deep golden-copper sort of color, like you’d expect from a brown ale.
This beer met my expectations in quality and drinkability. This nice folks over at Saint Arnold are doing allllllright if you ask me! I did expect it to be a bit heavier and bitter, but this was a welcomed surprise.

You can probably find this anywhere good beer is sold. I’ve even seen it at corner stores. I got mine, as usual, from HEB.
