Oct 16, 2007 Tap. I liked this very much as it’s malty with a touch of sweetness and hops that makes for a great mouth full. Sometimes it displayed a passing watery element, but it didn’t bother me as I was looking forward to the next taste...

Oct 14, 2007 Bottle. Standard golden color. Nice solid, thin head. A little malt with a very lager-like scent on the nose. The taste is that of a English old ale mixed with an American Pale Ale...but watered down. The nice hoppy flavor is more diluted than it should be, so it teases towards being a better beer than it is.

Oct 11, 2007 Amber with decent, creamy off-white head / Faint, sweet. caramel malt nose / Light body, weak malts with no discernable hops, and without much finish / Simple flavors of light caramel malt with a little sweetness on the finish / Dissapointing effort for the usually reliable Brooklyn.

Oct 11, 2007 Pennant ale is not the same thing as Brooklyn Lager. Geez man, I live in Brooklyn. If it was the original beer representing Brooklyn Ber Co, the company would be out of business.
The original is good. A balance between flavor and easy drinking. A bit filling but overall delicious for any occasion

Oct 10, 2007 A very drinkable beer. The aroma and flavor are not that exceptional but they are pretty smooth and go down easy. The flavor is a lot less hoppy than I’m used to for pale ales, which isn’t a bad thing if you prefer more balance.

Sep 29, 2007 This is part of a beer club. Had only one bottle but was decent for the price. Poured great and had a nice finish. Would do again.
