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!

It says "retired" by this beer, but you can still get it at most stores in the Twin cities area. Super cheap , 8 bucks for a case about, but actualy pretty tasty for a swill brew. Less taste then old style i would say, but i like to get it every so often just for grins.

Lots of bang for the buck. Tastes pretty good for a cheep beer, and doesnt give you an "I drunk skunk pee" aftertaste. Not my first choice of beers, but can be enjoyed. Average taste, smells pretty good, and looks good pouring out of the can into my mouth.

12oz can. Thin, pale yellow color meets $3.99 6-pack price tag...uh oh. Hmm..actually not so horrendous. Adjuncty grain bill never brutalizes, and there is some discernable hop balance. Watery and thin, but pretty good for the budget beer it is.

Not sure why, but I really like this beer. My wife and I actually won a 12-pack of it while at a tavern somewhere in Wisconsin, and have been trying to find it ever since to get away from the MHL, MGD, etc., we usually drink. MUCH better than either of those.

Thanks to swalden28 for sharing this can. The beer pours a clear light yellow color with a white head. The aroma is that of grain and lemons with not too much more. The flavor is mainly grain, lemons and yeast but I also get some metallic notes. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Skunky tasting pilsener. I didn’t think it was that bad but I wouldn’t drink this again. Good cheap attempt at a beer.
