Yuengling Light Lager

Yuengling is the oldest family owned brewery in the United States, and is located in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. This is their 99 calorie light lager.

The beer pours bright, amber and copper. There is a tall, thick head of white foam. The aroma is cooked vegetable, malt, light caramel. The taste follows the aromas, but is bright and a bit tart at the end. The finish is just on the dry side, very little bitterness. The beer is so carbonated that it burns. As the strange tart note wears off, it becomes a decent light beer.
