Old rating,Used to be a road tripping favorite,not for the flavor i assure you of that,no it was cheap and better then the alternative of Busch which will be rated later.Light golden color,light aroma of corn and grain.The flavor was not as bad as some others.Mild all around with a grainy,corny flavor and just a trace of hops in the finish.$12/case was pretty decent for this brew.

If you’re drinking Bud Light or Miller Lite right now and you live in an area where Grain Belt Light is available then you should switch to this beer. It’s better all the way around and costs a little less. Light and refreshing without being too watery. It still tastes like a beer. Modest hops or malt flavor - but hey it’s a light beer.

Decent light if that’s your thing. Just like Bud or Coors Light.
