Beer Review: Light Lager by D.G. Yuengling & Son

Yuengling Light Lager

Yuengling is America's Oldest brewery and unless you live in one of the original colonies it seems it is impossible to get their beer.  I respect Yuengling for their decision to remain truly regional, but it does get frustrating not being able to buy their lager.

The Light Lager is my Dad's lawnmower beer.  It is that easy to go down beer that quenches your thirst.  Now I know most of you think a lawnmower beer is required to have zero flavor.  This is not the case with Yuengling it is full of flavor while still being light.

Tasting Notes:
When poured from a bottle into a pilsner glass Light Lager poured a dark amber with a solid three fingers of head.  Aroma is composed of caramel, corn, grass and a hint of lemon.  The taste follows the nose and has more flavor than others light lagers, but remember this is a light lager.  Mouthfeel is almost watery, but that is within the style.  Overall a very drinkable beer for a light lager, but if you can find it get the Traditional Lager from Yuengling instead.
