Iron City Beer

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

lager look w/ no lace light yellow thin quickly gone white head, but it came in an Alluminum bottle so that was cool. Smells of grain and blah lightly carbonated and ovelry thin in the palate, flavor of graing and weak hops overall just another citys bad beer

Good golden color,small white head that faded quite quickly.I'm trying to find the aroma and just can't it's so faint that all i can say is that i think there is malt possible corn and maybe some hops.I was using the force to detect that stuff.The flavor is mild corn malt and mostly water with a few hops thrown in to keep them from being totally ill-legit.I have to say that it is some what refreshing but then again so is water.this brew will do in a pinch if there is little else around but i'm glad i just have the one to sample any more would be a drag.

Keith-Well, for a heap lager I guess its ok. Metal "bottle" caught my eye. This beer is light on aroma and head. The taste is also weak with a hint of sweetness brought on by the malt. You get what you think you are going to get on this one.

Sparkling gold, thin fizzy white head. Leave in the bottle for best aroma. You don’t really want to smell this in a pint glass. Creamed corn, and butterscotch, with a light fruitiness. Tasted pretty much the same. Light bodied, light carbonation, malty, corny finish. I’m serious...drink it from the bottle...

Pours a semi-golden colour with a thick white malty top. Aroma is a little grainy with soft fruit like pears and hint of bananna. Taste is very dissapointing, metallicy, grain and finishes watery.

Nothing special at all, in fact, pretty darn bad. Extremely surprised that it has such a high rating. The several perfect and near perfect ratings clustered around 6-17-01 seem highly suspicious (esp. as they were mostly entered by people who rated only 1 or 2 Pittsburgh beers in the database and put as their location only ’USA’) and may be the act of one lone soul trying to sustain Pittsburgh pride. Just trying to keep it fair. Well, at least they got the Steelers. This beer is pretty lousy overall--even for a macro.

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.

This was do-able for a mass produced lager. Nothing offensive in the taste. Pretty clean and straight foward just nothing in the taste dept. I could see this for a night of swilling, if thats the goal
