Look for it at: Total Wine & More

Distributed throughout Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio, with a beer finder on the site. In Pennsylvania that means cases, returnable bottles and kegs at beer distributors, six-packs at licensed grocery and convenience stores, and draft at bars. The St. Marys brewery runs a drive-through retail store and a tap room with the free Eternal Tap, and the site also lists a few Total Wine & More stores in New Jersey and Delaware that carry it.

Grain, light corn sweetness and a touch of hops.

Gold and clear.

Taste

Fuller malt than the flagship, a bit more hop bite and a crisp finish.

Overall

A nice look at what an old American lager tasted like. Worth grabbing when it is around.
