Gold Color with White Ring. Found in Maryland. Sweet Grains on the Nose. Sweet Dry Grains Flavor. Overall, an Ordinary Average Lawnmower Lager....But Then, it IS Called ’Frugal Joes Ordinary Beer’, so I’d Say Schell’s Delivered on This One.

Very pale yellow with a small foamy head. Aroma and taste are pretty much the same; corn and grain with a slight hops taste. Heavily carbonated with little finish to speak of. Just like the label says, a very bland, ordinary beer.

Cheap bottles from Trader Joes in Columbus OH. Pale as pale can be without being called water. Clear pour with a twinge of light yellow and a bubbly white head that disappears in seconds. Virtually no aroma. Slight flavor of beer was detectable. Slightly corny aftertaste. Frugal Joes is worth the price for what it is. I will not buy it again.

from bottle, a sparkling light yellow color. sweet in flavor not bad for an extremely cheap beer. I really bought it or the interesting label and name.

Pours a transparent pale golden with a thin, spotty-lacing ring of white head. Aroma of slightly grainy pale malt and a hint of earthy noble hops. Body is thin, but smooth with little grainy malty character and a touch of earthy bitterness toward a clean, but boring finish.
