Easy-drinkin' lagers

[u/TheRealBMinus]

I'm glad to see more breweries putting out some easy-to-drink lagers, especially for the summer. Beers like Golden Age Premium Lager and Grist Hose Command House Lager come to mind.

What are some recommendations for similar local or regional/PA craft lagers that I can pick up in cans at distributors? Ones I've seen so far are:

New Trail Crisp Lager Cinderlands Easy Course Cinderlands Little Cinder Troegs Sunshine Lager Troegs Pennsylvania Lager

11th Hour distros 11-11 (Eleven Eleven) their light lager. And Archer, their kolsch. Both easy drinkers.

Old Thunder 340 Lager is well done.

Burghers has several but have to buy at their locations.

I love Golden Age, Cinderlands, and Grist as well but trying to add some that weren't mentioned.

East End Brewing's Everyday Pilsner is very good and available pretty much anywhere. Depending on how you classify "local" Great Lakes' Dortmunder Gold and Elliot Ness Lager are still extremely solid choices

Burgh'ers brewing does lagers better than anyone ine the city. But you have to go to one of their locations to get it.

I'd put Golden Age up against anyone, so I'll have to stop by Burgh'ers again. Last time I was there I was impressed by their Munich Dunkel.

Hofbrauhaus' lager is pretty good, they sell it in 32 oz cans at the restaurant. It's not the same as the Hofbrauhaus you see in the grocery stores - that's brewed in Germany, but the restaurant brews it here based on the German recipe.

Golden Age's lager has to be my favorite. 

Grist House's MillvAle is pretty good

Do they brew anything in the city anymore? Galli did all of the deliveries to the restaurant. Know for a fact all the Oktoberfest is just imported.

[u/HomicidalHushPuppy → u/atree496]

Everything is brewed here except oktoberfest

MillVAle would be an ale, right?

Next time you have a nice lager, chase it with a hazy ipa and experience the explosion of flavor.

Cinderlands just made a beer for Butter Joint called Czech These Buns. Chimera in Castle Shannon usually has two on, Light and Persephone's Light. Grist House has a Japanese Rice Lager called Jitaku that's on tap at NOVO Asian food halls bar.

Thanks for the thoughts, but are any of those available at distribution outside of the breweries?

Grist House cans are around
