Commercial Description:
Kenzinger is a quenching golden session ale that boasts a European birthright while displaying a certain Philadelphia sensibility. Kenzinger is crisp and smooth enough to refresh, but with a spirited, unforgettable flavor that delivers 100% of recommended daily taste bud stimulation. Brewed with pure pilsner malts, light on the bittering hops but loads of hop flavor and aroma; Kenzinger is bound to be your new standby.

bottled - Very good, highly drinkable beer. A bit hoppier than I expected (but definitely in a good way). I’ll be drinking this one again (of course it doesn’t hurt that it’s also nostalgic since I grew up in Kensington).

A real nice easy drinking lager; reminds of a Brooklyn Lager "light." Nice use of hops and plenty of aroma, but not too heavy....great for your wife or girlfriend....good job Bartons!

Clear light copper with a little white head and hardly any carbonation. Simple, easy hoppy smell with some lemon, grapefruit, citrus and grainy notes, as well as a little o-zone. The taste is very clean and crisp with lots of hops. Grass, pine, lemon and citric pine notes mix well with the simple malt background. The finish is clean, and it’s a little thin in the mouth. Overall I actually really dig this beer for what it is. It’s easy and accessible with lots of appeal for the masses. I like it a lot and can’t wait to have more.

A local brew for me. This is a good beer. I don’t get the lower rating for it. Pours an amber blond. Definite hop tingle on the back end, but very pleasant.

Very drinkable, Philadelphia Brewing Company makes good beer at affordable prices, golden clear, large white head, a bit heavier than a typical "session," crisp and thirst quenching, hint of raspberry somewhere over a light hay malt. Surprising, good for the hot Philly summer

A lovely Kolsh style ale.Good balance and easy to drink. Just a well made thirst quencher. A perfect stepping stone for your friends who drink macro rice beer.

12oz bottle-pours a rich white head that laces and gold color with lots of effervescence. Aroma is lemon, grain. Taste is lemon/spicy hops (Amarillo and Continental) up front with some bite, secondary grain/light malt-sweet/husky. Enjoyed the first half more than the second half, but a very nice beer. Thanks to Joe-jwc215 for picking this out.
