Bottle. If you took a thimble full of beer and spilled it into a glass of water, it would give you this color. Bleached out gold with a fizzy bit of a head. Aromas are chalky and grassy... but very weak. Flavor is a bland malt with some adjunct and a bit of a peppery hops presence, but is very weak.

Bottle pour clear golden color. Almost no head. Aroma is of hops and misc. grains. Starts slightly sweet with a crisp bitter finish. Light and simple.

Can: Hazy yellow color with not much head. The aroma is of barley and beer. The flavor was actually tasty. I was suprised. It was hot out though and the beer was ice cold. That might have had something to do with it. Overall though, for a Pale Lager, one of the better ones out there.

I’ve been drinking a fair ammount of this lately and actually deleted y original rating of it since it didn’t realy match what I think of it now. this is an easy drinking pale lager that gets a bit grainier in the 16 oz returnable bottles (LOCALS ONLY!!) Yes, in response to the recent "who drinks Yuengling thread" yeah, I do. If you dont like it you can get the hell out of the bar! This is a great lawn mower (session beer if you must) and cuts the heat well. sure there is some corn but this isnt the Fatherland now is it?? It is a bit less in the can but price sells as they say. Not much hop character, but rereshing nonetheless. Every beer has its place. I look forward to my next one.

Can, thx Todd. Slightly hazy pale yellow, creamy white head. Metallic, light rubbery, estery apples, straw aroma. Lightbodied/watery , corny malt, a hint fruit, fitting hop balance, grainy retronasal. Mellow mouthfeel.

I just bought a case of cans for $12.99. The best thing about this beer is that it’s cheap and it doesn’t taste bad. Most beer this cheap has a horrible sewer funk flavor, but this beer is crisp and clean with no off flavors. Much like the similarly priced Lion beer from Wilkes Barre. A good summer beer when it’s deathly hot outside and you’re in the mood for a bunch of picnic style beers for very cheap. At this price I can’t find anything to complain about.
