schells_maifest_xsmallBeer: Schell’s Maifest

Brewery: August Schell’s Brewing Co. in New Ulm, Minnesota

Reviewed: 4-Jun-09 on Episode 143

Appearance: Golden brown with white head.

Aroma: Roasted malt with floral undertones.

Taste: The taste contained roasted and sweet flavors with a slight floral taste.

Mouthfeel: Medium body with a dry finish.

Aftertaste: Acidic finish. Seemed almost out of place for the other flavors in the beer.

Overall: Decent malty beer.

Notes: Other than the finish being a bit off it is a pretty good beer. It would be a nice Summer evening beer.

Posted By John on June 5th, 2009

schells_stout_xsmallBeer: Schell’s Stout

Brewery: August Schell’s Brewing Co. in New Ulm, Minnesota

Reviewed: 4-Jun-09 on Episode 143

Appearance: Deep brown with a tan head.

Aroma: Coffee and bitter sweet chocolate.

Taste: The bitter sweet chocolate comes through with the coffee playing in the undertones.

Mouthfeel: Medium light body.

Aftertaste: Roasted sweet finish.

Overall: The coffee and bitter sweet chocolate flavors define this beer.

Notes: A good stout, nothing great and nothing bad. We thought it would make a nice desert beer with chocolate cake.
