Boxer beers come from the Minhas Brewery in Monroe, Wisconsin.
I
picked this up in Omaha, Nebraska. As far as I know, it only
comes in 36 packs of cans. It was $16.99 for 36. This
4.2% ABV beer pours a very yellow golden in color with a small white
head. The aroma is like apples and cream of wheat. The
taste is a bit fruit sweet and a bit fruit tart, very, very light
grain with an extremely light bitter note on the end. The
regular is better tasting than the light.
We recently did a blind taste test for Cheap Beer Madness in Burnsville. Boxer came out on top! Check out the brackets at: Dirty Beer Hole - Cheap Beer Madness 2011
ReplyDeleteSlightly confused as to the origin of the beer, Is it made in Canada or USA? Or made in USA for Canadian consumption but now available in Wisconsin/Minnesota and beyond? We like the taste and their price.
ReplyDeleteI read it started out in ontario and then with a bit if capital grew 1000%in a few years. Thats when they bought the brewery in wisconin. Now its made here for sure but probably there too in smaller quantities.
DeleteVery light, nothing special flavor. I paid $13.99 + Mn. tax so total of $15.34 for a 36 pack. I have seen reviews that it was over carbonated, I thought the opposite, nearly flat. Not bad for the price.
