Iron City Beer

Yes! This gorgeous beverage poured a golden-yellow color reminiscent of the evening sun dabbling light on the rippled sands of Lake Michigan’s dune country. The whitish head, you ask? The frothing, biting advance of the whitecaps onto the sandy shore. The malty, corny and sweetish aroma and flavor? Why, haven’t I convinced you already? Just make sure you tread the dunes as softly and smoothly as this beer treads my palate. And may the dune grass kiss your feet as the hops embrace your tastebuds.

I like stouts and ales. Lagers are cheap and thats how they taste thin and cheap. But I prefer Iron to Bud and the other lagers in the same price point.

Gold body with a small white head. Aroma is sort of corn syrupy with some bready notes. Taste is malted with more corn and lightly hopped. Crisp finish and mouthfeel due to the hops and carbonation. Not as bad as expected, but nothing worth going out of your way to find.

This is a decent lager, kind of light and barleyish - kind of tastes crisp and refreshing, actually. It’s of course not great, but it *is* underrated. From Pennsylvania! My dad’s friend brought it down.

I just sort of naturally assumed it would completely and utterly suck, but really isn’t all that bad. Clear gold. Nose a bit grassy, some doughy malts. Flavor is reasonably smooth, not skunked, and chock full of corn, but not unpleasant or harsh in any way. Granted, I was tired and hot after shoveling dirt into a garden box, but all-in-all I could actually drink this on a hot day without too much trouble.

Very clear straw with a white bubbly head. Minimal malt aroma. Flavor is adjuncty but not too bad (at least compared to my expectations).Light fizzy body. Thanks Dan! (I guess)

Slumming at Dan's bday party -- upon arriving Dan offers me this gem of a beer, in anticiaption of #2K. Clear straw body with small-medium white head. Aroma is light, bready, grassy. Taste is the same -- innocuous and non-offensive. Light body. Not as bad as I feared.

Not much aroma. The head was white, essentially tasteless and short-lived. Beer was straw colored. Very thin with no body whatsoever. Tasted somewhat of rice. Very little bitterness. This beer may be missing a few key elements. Like, say, hops and barley. It's like drinking bad alcoholic tapwater. I remember trying this both on tap and in bottles a year or so ago and thinking that it wasn't half bad for the price. It's gone way downhill since then and I would be embarrassed to be seen drinking this weak, girly swill - let alone brewing it. My wife brought home a 6 pack and I ended up dumping several bottles down the drain. I doubt that there are even enough hops and barley in this bottle to qualify as a beer. Maybe it's really sake, what with all of the rice. But the label is misleading because this is not beer.
