COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
An iconic American lager famous for its rich amber color and medium-bodied flavor - with a roasted caramel malt for a subtle sweetness and a combination of cluster and cascade hops, this true original delivers a well-balanced taste with very distinct character.

Darwenus (383) - Virginia, USA - MAR 8, 2013
Clear, brown body with a small head, there is very little going on in the aroma to comment on. The flavor really isn’t bad. It really is better than typical rice/corn adjunct lagers, it’s mildly malty toward the middle and there’s a lot of carbonation. There are far worse beers than this for washing down salad and a slice of pizza.

UPDATED: APR 30, 2013 Tap. Dark amber color. Negative on the head. Good overall lager. Been drinking it from birth. Craft beers have ruined it/me.

Iphonephan (1196) - Virginia, USA - MAR 8, 2013
From a 12 bottle at Oceans Bistro in Avon NC. Pours a clear amber with a white head. Malty aroma. Some hints of caramel and fruit in an otherwise unexceptional flavor. Highly carbonated mouthfeel. Astringent finish.

I've had this beer many times and it is my go to beer at bud/miller/coors bar. Nice malt presence. Not too carbonated or hoppy. One of my standards. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Not bad. This beer is becoming common in our area, and it’s nice to see it on the taps. Many of the dive bars around here have "Nascar Favorites" on tap.... so Yuengling is a welcome improvement over those. When I’m at one of those places that has a whole line of "Gas Station" fare... The Yuengling tap is a welcomed alternative. Good, but not great..... but certainly not bad.

Being from PA ive had more lager than any other beer.This is the best tasting lager for the price, around $20 a case. You don’t get a corny cheap beer taste with this beer. When it warming slightly you can taste the caramel malt. Of course there are better, more expensive lagers out there but for slightly less than the BMC’s out there you can’t beat it.

This is an average beer. Very bold and skunky to the taste. Pours dark golden brown. Very bitter ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle. Smooth and refreshing for warm weather. Nice ballgame beer. Tiny hint of hops gives it a bit more flavor than other offerings from larger breweries. A good choice for an easy drinker for a party, rather than something to savor.

My lawnmower beer. My go-to beer. my everyday beer. Mix this with about 1oz orange juice and you have a great summer refresher. There are lots better and there are MUCH worse, but think about it. For the price its great! And it has flavor. No, its not the best in the world but for being what it is, it speaks for itself versus having a massive marketing machine behind it.

Bottle. Medium amber clear color. Smooth on palate. Smooth lager taste. Mild malt aroma. Solid well rounded lager. Recommended.
