D.G. Yuengling and Sons' Yuengling Porter

So, my first Yuengling. From what I can tell it's like the Shiner of Pennsylvania, but with a longer history. Sounds good to me.

Pours nice. Like a stout with a hint of red and a nice medium-tan head that stays pretty well. Smells great. Roasted malt with a sweet floral hops, but both are subtle. Tannins are even more so.

Nice. Still very mild, very much like a schwarzbier, but enough body and tannins to distinguish it. A good version of the style, and a very good beer.
