COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Check out our website at http://www.pigseyebeer.com/Main.htm Pig’s Eye Pilsner is the flagship brand of the award-winning Pig’s Eye Family of brands. Pig’s Eye Pilsner is contract brewed by Stevens Point Brewing (and possibly City Brewing) with 6-row robust barley malt and a combination of Cluster, Cascade and Fuggle hops, to achieve a balance between bitterness, aroma and malt sweetness. Enjoy!

Cable (286) - SE, Oklahoma, USA - JUN 12, 2006
Sampled from can. Pours brilliant gold with a lasting white head and a bit of lacing. Aroma is mild and a mix of grass and hay. Generally non-offensive. Flavor is slightly sweet and bland. Hint of metals and grass. Way to watery. Perhaps more carbonation would hide the thin body? Non-offensive, but not good.

Poured from a can that was given to me by Todd. It was free, so I figured I’d try it. It pours to a huge fizzy white head that sits atop a really active golden body. The head disapates to leave a bubbling body. The aroma is malty corn silage. Strangely, the flavor isn’t half bad. Not really exciting, but WAY more drinkable than a BMC beer. I get mostly silage and actually get some hops in it. The palate is a bit watery but isn’t astringent or sour or anything bad.

Very bland corn swill with virtually no redeeming qualities save one...I had a free sample at the ABR 2005.

GABF 05. Pours a pale and blurry gold with a sour hops aroma. Flavor is vintage Cheap Beer, and the palate is water.

JK (3400) - Uptown, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA - OCT 9, 2005
Not as bad I feared it mght be. Light yellow color, little malt hop aroma, and a flavor of corn and hops. Decent body. Not bad, for a beer in the economy category.

I had no idea they still made this swill.I bought my brew meister from a guy that pumped only this stuff throughhis swill machine.NBice golden color,small head that faded quickly from the keg .The aroma was forgettable with a sign of malt(light)corn and the hops are barely noticeable.Swill all the way but the price for a 1/2 can’t be passed up.

I changed my mind josef hoffbrau, isn’t the worst beer i ever drank, this is.Putrid soury wheat beer/lemon aroma, nice head, nice lacing, creamy texture, but the flavor is like you opened a can of grapefruit juice, left it open in the refrigerator for two weeks carbonated it and tried to drink it. Off grapefruity like flavors with a slight tinniness.
