Jan 28, 2003 Another one that i feel doesn't deserve the bad press it has especially from the people in wisconsin the home of bad beer.granted it's not some high prized brew like some others but it definately deserves to be placed higher then what it is.it had a nice golden color,malty in aroma ,nice malt and hopp flavor with some hoppiness in the after taste.A very smooth brew for a hot summer day that is more then just drinkable but very enjoyable and satisfying.

May 3, 2006 Nothing wrong with ol Original. I typically dont buy this at the store, but when in New Ulm, a guy has to drink this, and its my distinct pleasure to do so. Malty-corn flavor that really is nothing to special, but it is just a pale lager. Nice color, good flavor, great brewery.

Aug 24, 2003 Color is a clearish golden yellow, very thin white head fizzed away super fast as it poured. Smell is all sweet fruity malts, very close to a white wine fruity likeness in the aroma, late notes of popcorn as it warms. Taste is smooth, crisp, mostly malts of light fruityness and grain, over quite quickly with a light creamy feel with a light fizzy carbonation and just a touch of hops carries over in the swallow. End is lightly crisp and dry. Nothing heavy here, its all about the light drinkin' and easy-goin'-down-smoothability. Which it has alot of. Its just a bit boring on the palette, basic, run of the mill, slightly-better-then-macro beer. Perhaps with a little help in the longer lasting taste dept., this could be a very good Munich Lager style brew.

Nov 15, 2007 This was the first Schell beer I had a few years ago. It’s not a particularly special beer and is a fairly standard pale lager, but it is good, smooth, pleasantly crisp, with a mild hoppy bite, and it’s more tasty than the usual macro-lager stuff. There is nothing unpleasant about it at all and it satisfies well for a basic, lighter beer.

Jul 19, 2003 This was very refreshing after a 100 degree day in the South Dakota Badlands. Has a sweet aroma, light golden appearance with a decent sized white head - lots of bubble action. Clean, crisp honest lager flavor - no pretenses in trying to be anything else. Goes down extremely smooth.
