2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
UPDATED: MAR 18, 2007 Well, you will probably notice my western PA. bias, but my friends and I just finished a quarter of Iron City and it did not dissapoint. Aroma is faint. Appearance is golden yellow with average white head. Taste is that of a decent lager..Straightfoward with a hint of sweetness. Finish is faintly bitter. Body is average.. carbonation is about right. Give Iron City a try.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
12 oz. bottle via trade with Linus_Stick - Pours a clear golden color with a half finger thick white head. Very light carbonation. Has a sweet bread, grain malt aroma. Has a slightly bitter sweet grain flavor. No unpleasant aftertaste. Light to medium body. Not bad for an American Pale Lager. Much better than any BMC. Thanks Alan.

12 oz bottle from Trooper11 - thanks, I think. Clear light gold with a thin white head. Light, sweet bread and grass nose. Flavor is the same, lightly sweet bread and grass. Grassy light bitter finish. Better than expected, but I didn’t expect much. Body is far too light, but the taste isn’t bad. Minor edge on BMC.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
The bottle says "Premium Lager", that with the 4% rating I am overcome with anticipation of what’s to come.....here goes. Small foamy white head leaves a bit of lacing atop this crystal clear yellow brew bubbling with goodness. Aroma is musky maltiness like ripe grapes. A bit peppery, kind of watery, medium bodied, not as malty as IC Light, but underlying malt is apparent. Notes of light fruit with peppery burn on the back of the throat. Good beer to serve to persuade an uninvited guess that he has overstayed his welcome.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
UPDATED: JUL 6, 2007 Funky shaped aluminum bottle courtesy of hopdog. Pours gold with a sustained white creamy head. Smells of citrus, nuts, apples, grapes. Tastes of nutty malt with some underlying corn starch sweetness. Finishes lightly peppery and nutty. One of the more flavorful pale lagers I’ve tried over the years.
2.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
UPDATED: SEP 20, 2007 12 oz aluminum bottle. Golden yellow pour with small white head. Aroma is faint, flavor is better than your typical large commercial brewer stuff, but weak for a smaller brewery. Good deal for the price though.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Let’s just say that the old "You can’t keep an iron man down" says alot. Pennsyltucky proud to say that I have consumed my fair share of this while getting the degrees in western PA. You haven’t suffered unless you have had an iron man hangover. Swill that is very close to my heart.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 5/20
A 12 oz aluminum bottle with no made on or freshness date. The body poured a golden yellow with a small white head that disappared very quickley. The smell is faint an of grain. Taste is weak and not very tasteful, carbonation is good had goes down easy.
A every day drinker that is not rich in taste but is easy to drink on a hot day or to just get drunk.
