Aug 2007. An enjoyable treat from the east. Thanks Uncle Dave. Not bad for a mass produced beer, better then a Bud/Coors/Miller. Not available in Montana; and I like to have something from Pittsburgh when watching the pre-season.

Tastes like rust and lead based paint. Ugh This is BAD beer. I was forced to drink this by my roommate that was from Pittsburgh. I sure hope people outside of NEPA don’t think this way about my local brew Yuengling Lager.

clear gold and watery looking. no head. sweet honeyish aroma. flavor is sweet with honey, butter and malt. maybe a hint of toffee and citrus. really not too bad for a pale lager.

Single bottle from Total Wine. Pours clear yellow with a mild aroma; taste is your average piss water beer with nothing special about. Extra deduction for being the beer choice of Steeler fans. Meh.

12oz can, labeled as Olde Frothingslosh, courtesy of hopscotch (via argo0). Thanks, guys! Pours a hazy, whitish-yellow color; white head with patchy lacing. Light citrus and sugar in the aroma; nothing offensive. Light-to-medium mouthfeel: grapey upfront, with some sugar and average carbonation. Quick, slightly grapey finish.

bottle - A hard pour yielded a 2 finger, rapidly fading head on this clear yellow beer. It smells like mild malt and adjuncts. It tastes like sweet corn and other adjuncts. I’ve had worse and it’s not as watery as some. That’s as close to "good" as I can justifiably come with what’s apparently a favorite of many in Pittsburgh. It’s crap.

Bottle...a regular American lager. A pale see-through yellow color, a little fiz. Really no nose, a hint of grain. No hop taste to speak of an easy drink but ni flavor a massed produced lager hiding under a craft flag

Malt aroma, a little sweet, some apple and butter notes.Golden color, almost no head. Grainy flavor with metal on the edges, rather bland. Tinny finish.
