Famous for its rich amber color and medium-bodied flavor, with roasted caramel malt for a subtle sweetness and a combination of cluster and cascade hops, this true original delivers a well-balanced taste with very distinct character. Born from a historic recipe that was resurrected in 1987, Yuengling Traditional Lager is a true American classic.

I forgot I never rated this. Some light Malts but otherwise mediocrity incarnate. Really.

Can. Nice amber color, decent head and lace. Taste has a corn like taste but it has a lot of rich flavor. Aroma is light with a caramel corn note. Not bad for a monster beer.

Bottle at the Airbnb in Marigot. Copper pour with a thin head. Totally unoffensive lager but also painfully mediocre with barely any noticeable characteristics. Meh.

US pint at Philadelphia airport on 8th March 2025. Waiting for a connection to Miami. Clean and clear amber body, off-white head. Malt driven with a pleasant crispness and carbonation. I liked it and it’s a beer I’ve wanted for ages because I was given an old Yuengling stemmed glass many years ago and still have it in my collection.

From tap at Pere Antoine, New Orleans. Sweet and bready with brown-ish malt, caramel, dark bread, barley and wheat. Mild bitter flavour. Body is mild to medium. Actually not a bad Dark Lager, much better than most macro Lagers.

Notes from 11/18/2008. It's recession time folks. I'm already past can returns, quickly sailing past deluxe mac n cheese dinners down to the instant powder stuff. I've been wearing sweat pants a lot lately, & since borrowing that extension cord from my neighbor, I've been able to keep the beer fridge running. ;) Costco variety pack edition. Traded the Lights & Chesterfields for currently unredeemable brownie points. Green is my favorite color. Pours out a lumpy egg white head, but rings the glass & sticks around longer then the canned variety. Smell has a sprinkle of citrus(kind of like Schweppes Ginger Ale), very husky & hayish, bit of sulfur, sparsely metallic, with less noxious Euro trash notes then what was in the can. Still toasty, but malt comes through much more noticeably then in the stumpy. Still mineral-ly, with a bland bread-ish sweetness. Almost a minty hop buzz, drizzle of alcohol still hurting the finish, but not really dry anymore. You can make out corn more so in this serving. Carbonation is softer then in the aluminum. Creamier then A, but not as forceful. $4-5 a case more then the cans, that's a box of Apple Jacks right there!
