Dec 4, 2008 Bell’s Lager of the Lakes at Zingermanns Roadhouse on November 28, 2008. Extremely light color, no detectable aroma - I have a bad nose. Flavor is extremely light, as is its body. A little bitter, reminds me of a Mexican lager.

Nov 19, 2008 Crushed with Jakebra. Consensus: poop on the nose. Very malty, with very hop bitterness in the finish. A Yogi the Bear beer: smarter than the average lager. Doesn’t mean much, but it’s something.

Oct 25, 2008 12 oz bottle as ’’lager of the lakes.’’ Pours clear, light yellow golden with a small, bubbly, white head that dissipates quickly. Remains moderately lacy with a decent swirl on the surface. Smells like a typical lager, except this is classified as a pilsener I guess. Some pale malts, sweetness, and light hoppiness. Taste is similar. Some added spiciness and honey to balance the mellow maltiness. Finishes slightly carbonated and yeasty with a mild lingering bitterness. Overall, not a bad brew. Balanced, plain, and nothing to write home about.

Oct 1, 2008 Gold lager pour. Citrus/pine aromas. Grainy malt flavors with Saaz hops. It is what it is supposed to be. Very clean finishing. Had this many years ago. I remember this being extreamly average, considering Bell’s standards. To be honest, the neatest thing about it is the bottle art.
