Blatz is good beer when compared with others in its price range. Has a nice full flavor when compared with bud light or natty. It has a decent frothy head with a mild body and light smooth hop finish. Nice average beer that doesn’t need to be analyzed to be enjoyed.

Part of a six can blind pale lager tasting with Blatz, Miller High Life, Pabst, Hamms and Budweiser. Very light yellow with a large white slowly fading head. Aroma of salty apple, corn and sweet malt. Taste of grain, corn, apple and malt. Astringent with a tin like aftertaste. Watery chaff, indeed.

Not very good. Typical light lager, but with a sort of nasty-sweet corn aroma and flavor. Light yellow, clear, fizzy.

Lets say grandpa died. We were going through his possessions, and we found a can of this beer tucked away somewhere. For whatever reason we decide to crack it. We say, wow, the head is creamy, and it tastes old, like must, mothballs, mold, etc. Yeah, it’s cool to be old-school, but this is geriatric.

Good beer. Had this in Wisconsin. If I wasn’t such a PBR and Old Style fan I would drink this more.

A good for mass produced beer, but by no means great. Another of those I considered good in a pinch. Much better then Bud or Pabst, a little below Millers.
