Brewed in the USA since 1849, Schlitz defines timeless taste. Crisp and light with a faint sweetness, the beer that made Milwaukee famous is finished with a prime blend of Cascade, Mt. Hood and Williamette hops. This refreshing icon is for those who appreciate heritage and premium craftsmanship.

By far one of the best pale lagers on the market. Yellow with moderate carbonation. Very little aroma, but solid flavor with a good malt base. I do not perceive any adjuncts, and I believe this is all malt.

Been looking for this for years. Finally got a bottle from Half Time. Pours pale gold with a 3 finger creamy/foamy white head. Smells bready. Tastes lightly sweet/bready but there actually seems to be a bit of hop present. Definitely better than many pale lagers, especially the Rheingold I just rated. Schlitz even seems to have some spicy hop.

Can. Very pale gold beer. Crisp palate. Mild malt with a subtle tone of corn. A little metallic edge and virtually no hops. Utterly bland and a little offensive.

Draft at the OF. Yeah I ordered this one at the bar, I guess I’ve got problems. Pale orange-yellow, hyper-filtered. Foamy white head, lots of CO2 bubbles. Macro aroma. A touch more depth than Blatz. Some sembalnce of hops in the aftertaste. Medium light body. Not horrific, but certainly not great.

Slightly skunked aroma of barley malt. Clear yellow, minimal head. Tastes lemony with mulberry and a slightly cardboardy finish. Fail.

Overall Impression: A fun craptastic beer. I'll give it that. It doesn't taste good, but it has the "interesting" factor going for it...

Can thanks to bhops. pours a clear yellow body with an aroma that is stale and full of corn. Taste is watery, corny and rice. Fizzy and dry mouthfeel.

12 ounce can from Beer Run in Charlottesville, VA. Pours a very pale yellow color. No head, lacing or retention worth noting. Godawful aroma is strongly grain with a stinky, sweaty vibe going on. Taste is almost palateable, strong grain, some corn, that odd stink in the finish. Absolutely no hops. Thin bodied.

bottle - I rated 90 beers in a row without a pale lager. I think that’s a personal best. Well that streak is now broken with this abomination of a beer. I got this one in an old dive bar in my college alma mater town of Bowling Green, Ohio. It’s a place called Howard’s that was the town livery about 100 years ago. I don’t think they’ve made many improvements since then. The floors are concrete and the seating is mostly old picnic tables. It’s the place to go when you want to hear some live music during your downward spiral. Just try not to spiral any lower as the next step is probably drinking malt liquor wrapped in a brown paper bag while slumped in an alley. Oh wait, was I supposed to be rating the beer? If you’re in a place like Howard’s, you’ve got to order a beer like Schlitz. It doesn’t smell like much and the flavor of this thin, watery beer is a light, corn-adjunct laden mess that couldn’t possibly make any brewer proud. No matter. So order that Schlitz, worm your way through the college kids to the front row in front of the band, chug your beer if you can stand it, and rock on. Come on, you can do it! You have not yet begun to defile yourself.
