Bottle. big yeasty aroma. pours a clear yellow color. taste: got a big citrus flavor and then yeast. lot of carbonation. nothing too pleasing about the beer.

This was supposed to be a pilsner? It is okay as a pale lager, comparable to say Heineken, maybe a step up. Very sub par if considered as a pilsner. Did someone say Saaz? I did not notice any Saaz. Or hops for that matter.

12 oz bottle. Pours bright gold with a small white head. Pale malt aroma, maybe a hint of some hops. Flavor is pretty similar, pale malts with slight spicy/citrus hop hints. Good for what it is, but nothing to get excited about.

Bland yellow pour with an initial large fizzy head that diminishes to virtually no bubbles. The nose is of grassy vegetation and plant life. Flavors have a touch of lemon, some dry malts, grass and a decent amount of Saaz hops in the finish. The mouthfeel is boring, with soft carbonation and a little thin on the palate. Decent summer brew for hot weather, yes, but not anything special. I expected a little more from Bell’s.

Bottle. Light yellow to gold, smallish head. Aroma is toasted grain, light earth hop. Taste is bitter and light grains and grass, bitter finish lingers. Chugable, easy

Aroma is minimal through the head. Appearance in pale with a persistant head. Taste is very crisp with slight bitter hints. Great body and palate. Decent beer.

From bottle. Pours thin with virtually no head. Very light and crisp, yet not very flavorful. I could this being palatable on a hot summer day but would not reach for it otherwise.

Bottle sample at the 2nd Annual Rocket City Brewfest. Bottle marked Lager of the Lakes. Pale in the glass with a white head. Aromas of grain and Rold Gold pretzels. The flavor found grain, light lemon, and hints of spice. Medium body and a lemon aftertaste.
