American Light

Brewed by Iron City Brewing
Style: Pale Lager
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA

Same great American taste, less great American calories! Sadly, there is nothing less American than having less calories in anything.

I would put this in the category of Bud light, miller light and so on. I think it holds its own for its style and price range. I would not buy it again. I’m beyond this type of beer.

i’ve een reminiscing about the Hopefully this is the same american lite i had from yesteryear. AWFUL. cheap. watery. like a beer rag in a bar. had a great time playing "a**hole" with it, though

Every time i think of this beer i think of the theme song to team america world police......America...........................fuck yeah comin again to make crappy beer.

How did PGH Brewing ever score the rites to a name like American? Yes, the american light form the company that invented the first ‘light beer’ & the makers of light brigade. Don’t say ‘this is first’ because it is one of the low price leaders in the south western PA region. 29 US cents per 12 oz can. Nice average flavor for a lager. I heard this is sold abroad and it sells well outside of the US. It says it has the strength of america in it. Pours very light yellow but not quite bright enough to be called lemon. Not a ticker because I rate this as I taste. Very few bubbles in the brew but the carbonation is decent to below average. It is a little bit light on the palate. Personally, I think that PGH brewing’s other lite knock off ‘brigade’ may be much better. A well behaved lager with a rapidly fading finish that is not an insult to the back of your throat. Good deal and it fills in where the raters leave off.

If I wans’t from Pittsburgh this woud be rated the lowest. Here in Pgh, we drank this when we were young and hiding in the woods. I guess whoever we stole it from didn’t miss it. Tried it again and it hasn’t changed.

This canned brew poured a small sized head of frothy fine to medium sized mostly diminishing white colored bubbles that left behind an unnoted lacing. The body contained soft carbonation, was transparent and yellow in color. Its aroma contained notes of malt hop and was a bit skunky. Its mouth feel is initially tingly bubbly and thin on flavor with a lingering tingly palate and a thin flavor in the aftertaste. Its flavor contained thin malt hop rice notes. Too carbonated bubbly and fizzy for meNot one I would buy again.

does not smell very appealing, appearance is a bit better than expected, flavor: ive had worse but too much alcohol taste, palate, decently watery, overall 4/20
