Iron City Beer

Brewed by Iron City Brewing
Style: Pale Lager
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA

Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

Tastes like metal. Leaves no aftertaste in mouth. Beer was in an aluminum bottle, and tasted like it came from a can. If your going to put a beer in a bottle, it might as well be glass. Wouldnt drink this again.

Poured a golden color with a small white head and no lacing. Sweet, malty, corn, grain aroma. Grainy, malty, lightly sour, abbrasive mouthfeel. Extra appearance points for innovative aluminum bottle.

not a bad lager, and much better than i anticipated. sweet flavor w/ good drinkability.

As a native Western Pennsylvanian, and all around Pittsburgh sports fan, I will write an extremely biased, and hypocritical review of this fine beer. Man, this stuff is so good. Holy crap. Mmm. Tastes exactly like beer. I can also detect a hint of good ’ol Pittsburgh Steel, and a note of an angel’s honey pot.

Kind of like Budweiser, but kind of good. Has some flavor, a teeny bit of hops and malt, but less carbonation (thank god). I’d recommend it if I weren’t from Cleveland or it weren’t from Steeler country. The aluminum bottles are just cool. Now why can’t I get Yuengling here, less than two hours from P’burgh?

pours with a nice head, a little lace, nose is sweet, beery, a hint of hop, and some corn. Flavor is about what you’d expect. Better than the average for a micro, although I’d prefer a little less sweetness and a bit more hop. The one I’m drinking now is from a 12 oz can, which I picked up at the Bodega. I think all they have is stock on hand and not much left.

Thanks Mike for sending this. I’ve come close to buying it at the Class VI store on base a few times but didn’t have the guts. What a surprise to find an aluminum bottle of this tucked neatly "along for the ride" in with the Dark Lord, Cuvee de Tomme, and Bells Batch 5000. Pours a translucent straw colored body with small-medium white head. Aroma is light, bready, grassy. Taste is the same, and acutally hints that some genuine barley went into this....what a pleasant surprise. Very lightly carbonated....another surprise. This actually had some nice bitterness in the finish. While it’s still a barely average lager, you could do far far worse. Thanks Mike!

lager look w/ no lace light yellow thin quickly gone white head, but it came in an Alluminum bottle so that was cool. Smells of grain and blah lightly carbonated and ovelry thin in the palate, flavor of graing and weak hops overall just another citys bad beer
