Commercial Description:
Pocono Lager is brewed with a blend of the finest American malts to create a brew with an inviting color and drinkability. Kettle hopping with Galena and Mt. Hood enhances its smooth flavor. Note its deep amber color and creamy head – the way a real lager should be. Take a sip and savor the rich flavor and exquisite body!

Clear light copper. Thin off white head. Bubbly carbonation. Husky malt aroma, mild corn sweetness. Crisp, dull and blandly flavored. The color indicates caramel or toasted malts. Did they skim those flavors out? Light body. Dry. Rice hull flavor. Clean and brisk, but devoid of anything. Finishes with mild wet paper. Label says "Amber, Full bodied". This isn’t amber and it’s about as full bodied as Kate Moss.

Pours a reddish color with an ok sized head. Aroma is roasty (slightly) and some caramel. Taste is pretty sweet, kinda like a vienna. Some roasted finish is there. It’s an ok beer I would say.

Dark amber beer with a white head, very reminiscent of Yuengling traditional Lager, but the flavor is a littl short of that standard.

12 oz bottle. Aroma is beer. Color is a bit darker than a regular pale lager. Reminded me sort of like lionshead with more flavor and less drinkability. good beer.

Bottle sampled. Pours deep amber with a small beige head. Aroma of sweet malts, slight caramel, and some toast. The flavor is slightly sweet, caramel, and a fair amount of bitterness in the finish.
