Pours pale gold with medium white foamy head. Aroma is grainy malt, light lemon cleaner tones Flavour follows suite with a lemony grainy tangy body. Finished crisp and clean. One of those better out of the bottle beers and at $9.99 for 12, I could see myself drinking a lot of this over the summer.

If it says premium, its got to be good! Thanks Sellnow for this remnant of Sellnowfest. Pours a yellow with a white head, Nose and aroma of sweet malt and grain. Decent for a pale lager, I guess..

Tap at the Red Stag. Pour was a very pale yellow, minimal head and a little bit of carbonation. Flavor was light a little malty and finished very crisp. The best "everyday beer" for the masses that you can stock for a MN BBQ

Draft beer @ "Stones Throw" Eau Claire,Wi. Pours clear yellow with a small white creamy head. Sweet malty profile in the nose and flavor. A sweaty smell and hay aroma creeps in as the beer warmed up.(frozen mug) Soft bitters on the edges. Smell reminds me of a hay mound on a hot day.

It tastes great, doesn’t cost much and it is locally brewed (relative to me). That is a winning combination in my book. A great beer for a hot summer day.

Not Blatz but a damned close beer to that imperial king!!! Grain Belt used to be owned by Heileman, who peddled it for $4.50 a case (circa 1989). What a clever gimmick! Putting one of the finest brews into hardtop cases and hooking generations of ca$h strapped college kids. Man oh man, I wish I could get this stuff in my neighborhood. Blatz yes! Grain Belt yes!
