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.

come on, this beer is Pittsburgh. The flavor is as good as any American standard beer and it beats Bud or Coors any day. It’s clean and refreshing, a little heavier than most of its type. When in Rome (or Pittsburgh) do as the locals do. Drink Iron City. No visit to Pittsburgh would be complete without enjoying an I.C.

nice overall beer, faint scent of something, nice color with snow white head that dissapates quickly.tastes of malt and corn with something of a hop nip at the end, not strong enough to be called an actual bite. The fact that I am watching the steeler/eagle game probably helps this beer on a nostaglia stand point

In a bottle shaped can (or is it a metal bottle?). I was totally expecting a light tasting beer with not much to it but was pleasantly surprised by it’s body and depth of flavor. Aroma was a little off but the flavour was reminiscent of an abbey dubbel but with hints corn. Cheers!

Pours with a medium white head on a pale golden-yellow body. Strong corn malt and hop aroma. Sweet cornstarch taste with a bit of sourness. Thin watery body.

pours a light yellow color, with a fluffy white head. the aroma is grain, yeast, and not much else. the flavor is little to none. and for what there is, its grain.. i think its is comparable to pbr. overall, this is not that great (iron $hity)

The things I won’t taste to ensure a complete database or beer list! Iron City indeed; how do I flush the rust? Metallic, harsh, no appreciable aroma, no head, no lace, no good.
