Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Perfect Lite Beer Flavor As someone who doesn’t drink beer, I was surprised at the smoky enhanced flavor that came from the beercoals. It was just enough enhancement to strengthen the aroma & give a lite beer flavor without overpowering. It was also great because of the ease of lighting the coals and their ability to stay lit. Overall I would give this product a 10/10 & suggest you give it a try.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great smokey flavor! For Father's Day we got my husband a new grill. What better way to break it in than with Kingsford Beercoal infused with Miller Lite Beer? He made ribs, pork belly, and chicken wings and they all turned out delicious. My husband loves to spend his Sundays grilling and the type of charcoal you use makes a big difference. The Kingsford Beercoal added a delicious smoky flavor. He slow cooks his pork belly and said it was very easy to control the temperature. The Kingsford Beercoal lit easily and burned consistently for several hours. The bag lasts quite a while, we used a lot for the pork belly but still have some left for next time. Try it out for a limited time!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Kingsford Miller Lite Beercoal gives a fun and fla The briquettes of this Kingsford Beercoal have those signature grooves and edges Kingsford is known for, which helps them light faster and be ready for grilling in about 15 minutes. It gave the burgers and chicken a mild smoky smell with a subtle hint of beer flavor. The only downside is that it is not ideal for extended grilling sessions.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fun flavor twist to grilling I tried the Kingsford Miller Lite Beercoal briquettes, and they were a fun twist on regular charcoal. They lit up fast and gave off a nice, mild smoky smell with a hint of beer. The food, especially burgers and brats, had a subtle added flavor that made them taste a bit richer without being too strong. It is a cool way to make grilling more fun, and we enjoyed the flavor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Something you need to tryout Kingsford Miller Lite Beercoal Charcoal Briquets lights easily and burns evenly. Felt like it added to taste and gave off a good aroma.

Available for a limited time only, so be quick! I intend stocking up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Try it 👍 I just experienced grilling meat using Kingsford Beercoal charcoal. This was a free gift from InFluenster by Kingsford brand.. I was surprised and delighted when using this charcoal, the distinctive smell of charcoal blended with the aroma of grilled meat, it's really appealing.I'm impressed! It lights up quickly, heats evenly, and retains heat for a long time throughout the grilling process. I would like to recommend it to everyone."

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Coal This coal is definitely something else. Dint think I would like it as much as I did. This coal, when burning, actually smells like beer, and it smells so good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Surprised Kingsford Beercoal: I am amazed at how charcoal can give such a delicious flavor to meat. I have tried this charcoal to light my grill and it lights up very quickly. In addition, it is a very good quality and sustainable charcoal, it gives a very rich flavor and smell to the meat or chicken. Sometimes I dislike the smell of other charcoal, but I really liked the aroma it gives off when it is lit, and of course the aroma does not smell like beer despite being briquettes made of beer. I really liked the packaging, plus it is a 16 lb bag, which I think is excellent for its price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Loved it I recently tried the Kingsford Beer-Infused Charcoal, and I have to say—it adds a fun twist to grilling! 🍺🔥 The charcoal lights easily and burns evenly, just like Kingsford’s regular briquettes, but what makes this special is the subtle, smoky beer aroma it gives off while cooking. It’s not overpowering, but it adds a nice hint of flavor, especially to meats like burgers, brats, and ribs. Great for backyard cookouts when you want to impress guests with something a little different. If you’re a grill master (or just a beer lover), it’s definitely worth trying at least once! Very durable great value and traditional packaging

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to light! This Kingford Beercoal is a great way to kick off the bbq season! It lights fast without any fuss! One thing I did notice is a slight cracking as the coals heated up which hubby was a fan of! I received this complimentary but have found it at my local Sam’s club and already purchased another bag!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Definitely a fun way to cook The Kingsford Beercoal took a while to burn to the point where we could cook. The food was delicious and I couldn’t really tell if the scent was any different. Packaging was great but would be nice if you could reseal the bag somehow. I would purchase this if I saw it in the store.
