COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Three-time GABF Gold Medal winner (1990, 1993 & 1998) and 1999 Bronze Medal winner. Nationally acclaimed as the best Munich-style beer made in America. Penn Gold is a light-colored, medium bodied lager beer with a delicate hop aroma.

MrBunn (2006) - Western, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 1, 2008
Bottle. Pours an uninteresting gold color with a bit of a fizzy white head and aromas that promise a touch of spicy hops and some corn-like malt. Body and flavor are similar and totally uninspiring. Could be worse, but borders on macro-swill.

clear golden appearance with nice white head. flavor at best is crisp and fresh with mild maltiness. at worst it is flavorless. very unremarkable but as is the style

12oz. Bottle: Herbal aroma of malts and yeast. Poured light gold in color with a small white head that diminished immediately. Clear. Sparkling. Flavor is lightly sweet and lightly bitter. Tastes of corn, honey, hops, and malts. Light to medium body. Average texture. Average to lively carbonation. Corn finish.

Braudog (4473) - Hampton, Virginia, USA - DEC 6, 2007
Bottle: Apt name for this yellow-gold beer with a thin wisp of stickiness across the top. The aroma is crisp but starchy and somewhat corny. Drinks with a Germanic hoppy sting, but primarily a grassy, malty beer. Pretty decent brew. (#3237, 12/6/2007)

BINGEBOT (236) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - NOV 2, 2007
Clear gold in colour. Little head that has slight lacing. Smells of wheat, very clean. Taste is similar, wheat and very clean. This is a solid gold beer but nothing special.

shintriad (700) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 29, 2007
Yup, it’s gold. Metallic with some grassy hopes and soft carbonation. Kind of like macro swill, unfortunately. Not impressive.

mephisto (1252) - TAIWAN - OCT 29, 2007
a very good reward for a hard day at work. the aroma of sweet malt is accented with grassy notes. a standard munich brew, it tastes sweet and is full bodied. well balnced with pleasant aftertaste.

has the same aroma of a pittsburgh brewerey augustiner beer, easy to drink, almost like a light, alcohol content reflects this lightness, which is fine on a warm autumn afternoob
