Oct 26, 2007 12 oz. bottle. A staple that goes back to my mid-teens. I don’t drink it as often since Schells started brewing it, but when I do, mmmmm…. Pours a clear yellow with a brilliantly white head. Taste is sweeter than you may expect. Malty and medium bodied with a crisp finish. I’m grateful that this was one of my first beers.

Oct 21, 2007 A MN institution. Kinda sweet, like liquid candy. But definitely a great standby for chilling in the summer, or out at the bars...

Oct 16, 2007 Oh Grain Belt, or as we used to call it in college - Brain Melt. The parties, the girls, broken condoms, chewing your arm off to get away. Ahhh, such fond memories of my Grain Belt bender years. I did graduate and have moved on to better brews. You are watery, thin and have a lovely urine colored body, but you will always hold a place in my heart.

Oct 11, 2007 Updated: Oct 15, 2007I picked this up because on my old train lay-out I had a Grain Belt billboard. As it turns out I very much like it. Easily the most “drinkable: beer I have had in a while. If it was readily availably in Milwaukee it would a staple in the fridge.
A light bold taste with no after taste. The malt is on the sweet side but not overly so.

Sep 14, 2007 I brought a can of this back from the 07 RBSG as kind of a goof. My friend, who will drink only Bud Light, really liked it. It is a pale straw color with a thin fizzy white head and a thin acetate nose. The flavor was generally watery, with a sort of metallic sweetness. This is a thin, easy drinking lawn mower beer.

Aug 31, 2007 This was the first beer I ever had. It is a crisp clean beer with a sweet aroma. One of my favorites.
