Berghoff’s are generaly underrated as is this. Smooth taste decent flavor. Lagers aren’t the most exciting style of Beer but good in a pinch. I like it.

Pretty good stuff. I’m impressed with the body and the crisp, almost tart finish. I would buy this beer again if the mood for a lager hit me. Good taste, good quality, it’s no Falstaff, but it’s okay in it’s own right.

This was a really good american lager. I like almost everything from the joseph huber brewing company and this is no exception. A well flavored lager. Great with cooking on the grill.

On tap at the O’Hare tap room. Yellow-gold with a white head. Very sweet malty aroma; sweet cookie flavors on this purely malty beer. When you’re not in the mood for bitterness, this is good.

THoroughly enjoyable beer, one of my favorite styles though, Nice malty/watery sort of flavor, only real complaint I have is the slightly metalic aftertaste, overall heads up beer.

My bottle says this beer is called Prairie Lager. I like that name better than Original Lager. However, Monroe Wisconsin is actually part of the Wisconsin Driftless Area, quite the opposite of the prairie. Anyways, for a Pale Lager, this one’s about as good as you can ask for or expect.

UPDATED: JUL 26, 2005 Medium gold color with a moderate head and a mild spicy aroma. Light to medium bodied, malty and on the sweet side with perhaps some adjunct presence, not much. Well hopped for the style with a nice spicy bitterness in the finish when it is reasonably fresh.

Had this on tap at the Cafe in O’Hare while laying over for a connection to Columbus. By the way, the bartender’s hot! Fresh and spicy nose that is too big for a pale lager; flowers, sweet grain and caramel. The brew is sparkling golden yellow. The mostly diminishing creamy white head leaves light lace. The very well balanced flavor leans toward malty. Not much acidity is present, and the toasty floral finish is very fresh. The medium creamy body is lively, the finish feels clean.
