IPAndy (119), minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Jan 12, 2007 Pours golden yellow with head that laces. Aroma has grass and malt. Flavor is somewhat sweet and earthy up front with a slightly spicy hop profile that leads to a clean, bitter finish. Gets extra overall points for low alcohol content. I could imagine old guys ice fishing and finishing a case of these.
golubj (995), Redwood City, California, USA Sep 7, 2008 Bottle, thanks to kosko20. Gold pour with some white head; visible carbonation. Aroma is some bready malt and light floral / earthy hops. Flavor is slightly sweet grainy czech malt / earthy hops. Not bad. MAP (868), Lakewood, Ohio, USA Sep 6, 2008 Pale yellow in color and a thin white head typical of a pilsener. Flavor comes off crisp and almost soapy at first. There is some mild malt flavor behind it, but its very thin. Palate is quite boring actually. This would go well with a big meal, but nothing special on its own. zootfinster (154), Chicago, Illinois, USA Aug 30, 2008 This is the first bells I’ve had that I feel is below a good level of quality. While it is certainly above the macros it is no where near their other offerings. Pours light clear yellow with medium head. Only a medium full mouth of a taste and even close to being watery. got it to try because their other beers are so superior. This is not one of those and I’ll not be buying it again mar (583), Dallas, Texas, USA Aug 28, 2008 bottle thanks to kosko20. pale yellow almost a light gold pour with a thin white head. lots of spicey malts with a nice soft hint of hops. rather thin with a huge bitter hop/malt finish. emacgee (1055), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Aug 28, 2008 Pours a soft pale gold with some haze. Nice carbonation. Head is about one finger thick and white. The aroma is sweet and bready, mostly on the malt side, some grassy hops. Has a prominent hop bitterness in the flavor, more dominating than in the nose. A bit chalky, kind of astringent. Leaves a piney hop bitterness in the back of the mouth.
