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.

Yuengling traditional lager pours rich amber with a small off white head Nose is medium malt, slight roasted nut and adjuncts? Body is fluid on the thicker side of watery. Taste is more complex than traditional macros, but nothing stunning. Medium malt with some crisp hops. Finishes clean. Good drinkability and value. With the price near bud and its clones but about five times the taste. It?s not bad if you have limited options or limited funds.

Draught. Clear amber with small white head. Aroma of toast and popcorn. Taste is malty and plain, but not as awfully cornflakey as expected. Light bodied and kind of icky.

from Bier-Bienne - translucide and bright red-amber beer with no head retention; aroma of popcorn and caramel; medium-bodied, pretty tart and fizzy; some harsh bitterness and a long corny finish

Drank from a can on a golf outing. This had a good malt base and a good crispness that you’d expect from a pale lager. Going from memory here so I can’t get much more detailed but it tasted really nice after having to drink Miller and Coors. Definitely an above average pale lager.

BierFiend (77) - Theisberstegen, GERMANY - MAY 20, 2013
Pours amber with a small white head. Smells of yeast. Tastes of yeast, bitter, and hay. I am biased about this beer, as I am from Pennsylvania, and grew up drinking it. Love this lager and believe it is top when compared to other American lagers. Delicious and refreshing. Great grill beer.

BlowOffTube (56) - Michigan, USA - MAY 18, 2013
Pours a clean clear copper with a thin white head. Smells of fermented old wet bread sitting in a closed garbage can and a hint of urine. Drinks sweet with the same taste as the smell with light carbonation. Better than bud or coors that’s for sure.

jmcgavin12 (167) - Madison, USA - MAY 17, 2013
Pours amber with medium head. Malty frothy and delicious. A classic beer that I love drinking and one of the first things that I do when I come back to the east coast

An American Classic. A standard beer that is always reliable. Good bitterness balance for an average priced beer, but does not leave a clean palate. Full-bodied but not too filling. ---Rated via Beer Buddy

This is absolutely the best beer known to men. This was the first beer that i didnt mind chugging and not get sick. I also like to take my time and make it last forever.

Down in NC for vacation and I’ve been drinking these in between beers. And, maybe for the novelty, I’ve been enjoying them. Following the decision to rate one, I immediately regretted pouring it into a glass. It’s darker than I imagined; brown, albeit light and very translucent. It’s the smell that’s pretty rank. Smells like all the ones that you oughtta drink outta the vessel. Spent grain and carbonation - this one is missing the tin. It tastes... better than it smells. The least bit more viscosity and probably a few more scoops of grain per barrel. Which are good things. East Coast, you’ve won the ultra light & cheap lager round.

A wonderful brew! Slightly darker then most traditional lagers. Smells of roasted malts, easy drinking and great flavor with medium mouth feel.
