Drinking Schmidt's in Bed-Stuy

Last weekend I went to visit a good friend of mine who lives out in Bed-Sty, Brooklyn. One of my favorite things about going out there is the bodega’s on every corner and the wide selection of beers they have. I found a 12 pack of a beer call Schmidt’s, I never had a Schmidt before but the name sounded familiar and they had pictures of turkeys and fish on the cans, which was really cool and is one of the main reasons I picked it up. The beer came out to be $10 dollars which was kind of expensive for a 12 pack in the middle of the hood but I was looking to have a good time and didn’t mind spending a couple of extra bucks for beers with turkeys and fish on them. I cracked the first can open and took a sip, it tasted like a PBR or a Black Label which are both decent beers. There was really nothing special about this beer besides the packaging and logo. It’s a cool beer to get once in awhile but nothing to brag about. It was lightly colored and lightly flavored, with not much of a head on it. If I were to give this beer a grade I’d give it a C.
