Episode 144 – The Schell Game Part 2
Posted By John on June 12th, 2009
This week was the second of our Schell’s Brewing podcasts. We looked at another beer from the August Shell’s Brewery in New Ulm, Minnesota.
Always on the quest for good beer we sampled some beer from a local brewer. Three beers all of good quality with a some lively discussion.

Appearance: Copper colored with an off white head.
Aroma: Sweet malty aroma.
Taste: Sweet malt with a roasted flavor.
Mouthfeel: Medium body with a crisp dry finish.
Aftertaste: little to none.
Overall: Ok beer. Not great and not bad. The grade describe it well.
