nice overall beer, faint scent of something, nice color with snow white head that dissapates quickly.tastes of malt and corn with something of a hop nip at the end, not strong enough to be called an actual bite. The fact that I am watching the steeler/eagle game probably helps this beer on a nostaglia stand point

Not a bad beer. Beats Bud and Coors with a nice flavor with some bitterness. Great for summer and watching the game with your pals.

Drank it because it was a local favorite. I was never that thrilled with it. About the same as the average AB product.

I think you have to have grown up on this stuff to have a real appreciation for it. Certainly not my everyday beer, but when I’m back in the ’Burgh for a Steelers or Pens game, I’m going to Pump an Arn!

has a bad reputation as toxic industrial waste but it is actually a rather drinkable standard lager better than the big national brews. not something tolook for, but as I live in pittsburgh it is hard to avoid and i would rather give my money to a local company than one of the big national brewers. slighty sweet and with just enough malt to mask most of the adjuncts. decent hop presence in the finish works well as a boilermaker base - imp 'n arn in pittsburgh talk

Ok, honestly, this beer (and any beer like it) gets bonus appearance points for the aluminum bottle. Didn’t expect much from this beer, but was pleasantly surprised. One of the better lager’s I’ve had in a while.

In my opinion this is one of the best mass produced American beers. It does not come close to holding it’s own against a good craft brew or a specialty beer but it sure beats Bud or Miller.
