Nothing special, but not a bad beer. Poured a little darker than most Pilsners, but still had the grainy nose and taste of Pilsners Medium bodied with a short finish. Pretty much a so-so beer.

Haven’t had tihis beer in a long time. Had a bottle tonight at primantis.Golden color with a faint hop aroma, almost undetectable. Not a bad taste for a pilsner. Went down real smooth.

February 2008. Clear golden color that lacks a bit in hoppiness. Easily smooth and goes down with anything, and won’t ruin your next beer. Definitely a good pilsner for any situation.

12 oz bottle. pours a clear golden color with a well-hopped fresh aroma. Medium body. Very smooth and drinkable upon the palate with no bitter aftertaste. Flavor is typical of a pilsner with a clean taste. Normally im not a fan of light beers but this beer impressed me with aroma, flavor, and palate.

July 2006 - Ok, by far the best of the 3 Penn beers, not that that is saying much. Good, enjoyable summer brew. Sweet pils tasted like a touch of corn even though the label was touting Reinheitsgebot. Who knows.

Pours a cloudy amber with a decent off white head that does not really stick around too long. Nose is a bit woody with a slight perfume to it. Flavor is much more robust than I was expecting. Thick tree character with a stringent sweet edge that has an overall thick caramel tone to it. Feel is smooth on the liquid with a fairly low carbonation. Very drinkable. A very well made brew with a lot of body and character to it. Definitely worth a try.

Beer of the month club. Thought this was really good. Not as crisp as I would have expected, but the smoothness and light sweetness make up for it. Nice brew.

Pours a clear gold color with a small white head. Has all the familiar smells of a vienna or pilsner. Some light citrus and cinnamon notes, with some crisp grain as well. The flavor was light and easy drinkiing. A good dose of sweetness to the flavor which was a little unusual. Decent at its very best, could drink a couple on a hot day, but not their best offering by any means.
