Description
Penn Brewery began brewing craft beer back in 1986, making us one of the earliest pioneers in the American craft movement. We started out brewing classic lagers and German beer styles, adhering to the strict quality standards of the 16th-century Bavarian Reinheitsgebot purity laws. As we’ve expanded our lineup in recent years to include IPAs and other contemporary styles like chocolate and pumpkin beers, we’ve stayed true to our quality craftsmanship, brewing all of our beers by hand with top-tier barley and hops. We’re proud to say that Penn beers have won a total of twenty Great American Beer Festival® and World Beer Cup® medals.

12oz bottle. Somewhere between a Nut Brown and a Winter Warmer. Flavored, but not overly sweet or sticky overboard like most modern beers. Drinkable, easy on the palate. OK.

From a $1 bottle off the sale rack at JRs. Pour is nearly clear with a big giant foaming white head. Nose is slightly veggie IPA perfume, typical session olfactory. From the start its terribly on style for an IPA. Straight up bitter ass. Its also augmented by that skunk cabbage thing which is so common with low alky hoppy session brews, yuck. Nasty nellie. Leaves a terribly grueling lasting session IPA taste in my pie-hole, long after the finish. Who wants to drink a nasty IPA beer without any alky to help numb your senses? Waste of time, but at least its a tick and it was only a buck. There you have it. One rude astringent mah-fah. Doesn't have much co2, considering its called refreshing. I'm quite disappointed in this because I really like penn brewery too.

12 ounce bottle. Bright orange copper color. Frothy beige head. Earthy toasted malt aroma has caramel notes. Sweet toasted malt flavor has toffeeish notes. Light bodied and toasty. Some stickiness on the palate. Fairly true to the style.
