Grain Belt Premium

Brewed by August Schell Brewing Company
Style: Pale Lager
New Ulm, Minnesota USA

A nice light aroma with a slight maltyness to it.clean finish ,but prefer the golden to this.I might be crazy but this brew seems to be all i can get from the Grainbelt people now but after being mostly in love with there golden i have to change and this brew is getting better and better as i drink more.I'm not ashamed to say it but i really like this swill,which is no swill at all IMO.

My favorite beer. I drink High Life (a close second) when I’m not in Minnesota. Great beer, staple of a great state, and not too strong but not a light beer either. You make take ours Twins, but you will never take our grainbelt.

Let’s hear it for Schell’s. By far my favorite. Great aroma, and malty taste. Nothing beats a good cold Premium after a long day baling hay, and that includes all your over-priced micro-crap.

My favorite beer by far, I hope someone picks up this brand after MBC closed up. My friend jokes that I’m the only person he knows under 50 who drinks this stuff but I’m buying up all I can now.

Rumor has it that SUmmit is interested in picking up Grain Belt. I hope Mark does -- he would be one of the few brewers smart enough not to mess with perfection!

I tried this beer last summer in MN. I was very surprised. The flavor was very malty and sweet and it was heavy beer, you can not drink this all day long. But I did load up my car to take home, I have only found one place in DENVER that carrys this, but they recently quit. If anybody knows of a place in CO, please email me. You will not go wrong trying this beer one of the best American regional beers.

GRAIN BELT PREMIUM IS BY FAR THE BEST BEER BREWED IN MINNESOTA AND ALWAYS WILL BE. IT WAS THAT WAY WHEN MINNESOTA BREWING WAS DOING IT, AND IT IS STILL THAT WAY NOW THAT SCHELLS IS SOING IT. GREAT BEER WILL NEVER GET OLD.

World’s best brew! I have it shipped here (in multi-caseload increments) to San Diego from John’s Grocery in Iowa City. (Note that John’s carries approximately 1900 beers, including many Belgian brews.) Yes, it’s light in color and body - but it sure goes down easy. Of course it’s not "all malt" - I happen to like the flavor of corn adjuncts. If you dislike the entire pale lager category, than none of this will matter to you. However, GBP is far superior to Bud and Miller and even superior to Coors ("Original") which is my second favorite of its type. I enjoy many types of beer, but think that Grain Belt Premium is a helluva lot better than hundreds of dark, chewy, filling brews which are revered by many beer "experts" but taste shitty and ruin any food they accompany.
