Penn Pilsner

Brewed by Pennsylvania Brewing Company
Style: Vienna
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA

12oz bottle pours golden and pretty clear with a nice white head that stays well. Aromas of noble hops over crisp grains. Flavor is grassy hops mostly but there is some grainy flavor as well. Palate is crisp and clean.

MIld sweet barley aroma with faint grassy hops. Not much of a head nor carbonation. A sweet malt taste with just enough bitterness to off-set. Not a bad beer, maybe a cross between a vienna and pils.

Has a grassy, hay, noble aroma along with a faint whiff of malt and a hint of, oddly, powdered sugar. The body is a bright golden color and holds a diminishing white head that is roughly a thumb thuck at the pour’s finish. The first sip is lightly sweet, malt accented with some very faint caramel hints and a grassy flavor through the middle. Pretty damn nice in a "I’m in the mood for a lager" kind of way. A gold colored and less hopped version of Sam Adams if I had to compare it to something. I think I’m gonna buy a sixer of this for my Sister and Brother-in-law who refuse to come off the lagers.

Clear golden color out of the bottle with an attractive off white head. Not much of a nose, and what there is is sweet with hints of a grassy hop. Clean crisp beer with nice caramel sweetness, lightly toasted bread, and a litlte pepper heat. The finish ends with a little lemon citrus bitterness. Very easy drinking beer, and great with pizza. Thanks to Linus_Stick for the bottle.

Draft, Pittsburgh DoubleTree Airport. Clear, shiny copper with creamy, medium-sized head. Aroma is grassy hops. Flavor is sweet and nutty toasted malt, with a slight bitter finish. Medium-light body. Not a bad little lager

On tap sample at Stockertown Beverage. It has a grainy malty macro quality bit is better than most of anything BMC vomits out. I think the carbonation and crisp finish set this apart from its competition. This is well crafted, maybe a tad bit too Earthy but otherwise a good session beer.

Draught. Pours golden with a small white head. Aroma is sweet bready malt, maybe with some apple? Flavor is similar, with some pilsner hoppiness noticeable, though not particularly strong. A bit sweet, and lacking almost any pilsner bitterness, but not a bad lager.

The appearance is a clear golden with a white head of short duration. The aroma has some malt and a little hoppish spice. Flavor is light with spice and the finish is crisp and clean.
