Bottle shared late night in the hotel lobby during RBWG 2015. Pours crystal clear pale yellow, with a creamy white head. Basic cereal and pale malt aroma. Medium sweet flavor, further sugary pale malts, cereal, hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Simplistic cereal finish, mellow hay, white bread.

There’s no arguing over the name here, this beer is definitely amber. I didn’t realize it was a Melanie beer when I bought, otherwise I might have thought twice. Nose is light caramel, toasty malts, grainy. Flavor similar, light malts, sweetish, peppery and herbal hop just barely present. A solid meh.

Clear light amber color with a light khaki head and average retention. Good lacing. Pretty light caramel taste for an amber but a very good smooth pale lager. Very sessionable.

Drank directly from a twist off bottle made in Latrobe. A little better than the regular version. Some detectable tartness in the background but just barely. Does have some of that old lager feel to it, you know, like a one year old case of cheap beer. Melanie shure has a nak for picking patriotic names, think defenders, heheh.

My bottle ws brewed over at the old rolling rock plant., right down the road. Difficult from the start. Twist off bottle pours dark yellow. Thin white head. This is probably more like a premium lager. Old alarming lager aroma. Looks pretty good now that it settled. Ooooooo, quite strong impressions initially. I was hoping for something a little better behaved. Slight wierd tartness at least gives it an interest. Finish is poorly made old cheap ice lager. I really want to like this but it reminds me of their defender series of beers. Just yur run of the mill rude cheap beer. Difficult metallic thing going on that is quite hard to get used to. Add this to another of those city brewing rude beers. They have plenty IMHO.

A standard yellow lager with some malt and minimal flavor. Not much going on. The palate is actually not bad, and it is drinkable enough. The rep said they donate 1/2 of their profits to military families, so I like that.
