Goebel is not a bad beer for its type. I know a lot of people on here look at the low price and immediately label it as ’bad beer.’ What a shame that so many of us are narrow minded enough to believe that price has anything to do with the flavor and quality of a beer. Goebel admittedly is not as good as it once was under the Stroh umbrella. In fact, that’s what I’m rating here. I have yet to test any of the batches coming out of Miller. I don’t know if they’re using the old Goebel formula from Stroh (doubtful) or just putting Milwaukee’s Best into the cans. However, Goebel was always a good consistent tasting golden American-style lager. It’s certainly no worse than anything with a Bud, Coors or Miller label on it and the old stuff from Stroh was always superior to any Anheuser-Busch brand including Michelob. Great old brand name from old Detroit. They even had a brewery in California decades ago. I’d drink it for nostalgia’s sake. Glad to see it’s still around. Now it’s time to revive Pfeiffer for Detroit folks too.

Goebel, the name kind of says it all. Tastes just like every other working mans beer. Not as good as PBR though.

this is as i remember it from way back, Goebel was absorbed by Stroh’s in the 70’s and the brewery was torn down, i don’t know what is left of the original but at it’s hey day it was not a bad beer
