I very good German style beer. I don’t think I will make this my main beer of choice, but I am totally into the German beers, most Americans just don’t know how beer should really be!

Wonderful brew. I found this in Minneapolis under the Grain Belt "Archive Series" beer banner. My version was brewed by Minnesota Brewing Co. and it was thoroughly enjoyable. Medium malty body with a nice balance of hops. Too bad more people didn’t sample Grain Belt’s archive series beers. They could’ve saved Minnesota Brewing if people had given these fine beers more of a chance.

Here’s hoping that Mark Stutsrud and Summit Brewing picks up the Grain Belt line -- this is a good darker beer that goes down easy.

An excellent Amber ale. Lovely flavor and finish, not too filling either. It is the best the Minnesota Brewing Company has to offer.
