Iron Hill Light Lager

Brewed by Iron Hill Newark
Style: Pale Lager
Newark, Delaware USA

On tap at Iron Hill Lancaster - Pale yellow with thin buzzy head. Meh, some hops but really nothing to mention.

Tap at Lancaster location. Pale straw colour. Aroma is light and hay-like. Short crisp finish with a bit of lingering floral character. Quite delicate and not bad, per se, but there is so much other great stuff here, that this one could be skipped.

On tap at Newark location: A simple beer, light and refreshing. Not that bad to be honest. Better than most macros.

very light beer, seemed almost flavorless, most like on the menu just for those who can’t handle a real beer and want something similar to a light beer.

draught. very pale yellow with a thin white head. faint smell of hops. taste is mostly corn. watery.

Draft at Phoenixville location...light straw color small off-white head...smells fresh and light...its a miller lite on steroids

My Bottom Line:
Clean pils malt cereal flavors create some crunch and sweetness throughout, but all is so delicate and left alone in the flavor profile that interest dwindles quickly. This is clearly a "house blond" for the masses, not one brewed for the craft beer lover.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A tame head of foam stands atop the clear pale golden.
-Hopping is nearly absent.
-Carbonation is appropriate and the body is not too thin, which is a nice change of pace in this usually frail and vapid style.
-This remains quite drinkable, but there are so few flavors to enjoy that I do not see a purpose in drinking it. Especially when there are so many more interesting session beers being offered at Iron Hill.

On tap at the Wilmington brewpub.

Poured a pale golden color with a small white head that left no lacing on the glass. Aroma of light citrus, toasted malt, and a bit of corn. Taste had toffee, some light vanilla, toast, citrus, and perhaps a bit of corn as well.
