Commercial Description:
Augustiner (pronounced August-teen-er) Lager is a smooth amber lager that has no aftertaste. Due to the fact that it is suprisingly light, you can enjoy Augustiner all night long and not get filled up. Since its release in 1999, the reaction to Augustiner has been exceptional, allowing us to offer Augustiner in the 30-pack. If you are seeking a great tasting lager style beer, then Augustiner Amber Lager is the choice for you.

Amber color with a modest head that fades to a lid of cream colored bubbles. Faint nut and grass aroma. Very little to this one. Colored water with a hint of malt.

This beer isn't bad. Pours dark straw/amber with some malt aroma. Finishes fairly smooth and crisp. I would drink this again.

Rating as Augustiner Amber Lager. Poured into a Sam Adams glass, premium lager, premium glass, right?Well before you can blink, the small head is gone. Dark tan with a corn and caramel aroma. Flavor has a somewhat caramel roasty nose but the beer sucks so bad it’s not worth taking any more of my time. Drainpour.

The folks at Pittsburgh Brewing have come up with a totally different ’feel’ than the Iron City Beer they’re famous for. Maybe that’s a good thing. The label has sort of a Belgian touch, which is deceptive! Bottom line: don’t go buying this like I did without knowing that it sucks. If you’re gonna buy Augustiner Lager, know full well that it’s a mediocre American Standard brew and be comfortable with that fact. If you’re OK with that, this brew will go down easy.

Sweet malts, oily body, clear orange color, ends lightly sweet. Nothing to see here people, just another pale lager.
