I drank alot of this stuff when I lived in Pittsburgh. Pretty much a terrible beer with a cult like following. But still, when you understand that it’s a true lager, you start to understand that it’s not all that bad. One notch above other mass produced flagship beers.

Bottle (aluminum). Light yellow color with minimal hop taste. Flavor is suprisingly better than most mass-produced lagers, although light on the bitter side. I would drink this over Bud, Miller, and Coors on any day.

Bottle. Piss yellow with a terrible excuse for a head. Tastes and smells like I had sex with a 90 year old women who died six hours earlier. I’m sure if you poured this over grass your lawn would brown wilt and after a few hours.

Clear yellow pour with a good foamy head that actually lasts a while. Corn and grain in the aroma and flavor, with a noticable touch of hops. Better than most macro’s.

Bottle. I used to drink this frequently back in my PA days, but I found it in FL so heres my rating. Clear straw colored pour with a decent white head. Aroma is mostly just grainy with a little hop presence. Has a grainy malty flavor, a little bit like rice crispies. Not great but alot better than the big guys AB, Coors, and MGD. Non offensive and easy drinking.

better than i was expecting. lite golden color, no real head to speak of. kinda malty, cereal-like with some corn sweetness to follow. a finishing aftertaste of sour bread. was ok, probably would be alright if i lived in PA and it was cheap and plentiful. otherwise pretty much forgettable.
