National Bohemian beer — popularly known as Natty Boh — will be sold on draft this season at Oriole Park at Camden Yards, according to a Pabst Brewing Co. representative.

The beer will be available throughout the ballpark at the April 4 home season opener, said Rachel Anne Warren, a retail sales specialist with Pabst Brewing Co. Warren said sales of the beer, once marketed under the slogan, "Brewed in the Land of Pleasant Living," had exceeded expectations after it was reintroduced on tap at the end of January.

Not to be a negative nancy but can I ask what the fascination with this particular beer is? I mean I understand that it'll always be "connected" with the O's/Baltimore but other than that what are positives about it?

From what I've tasted of it, ain't nothing to write home about.

Just curious. And yes, I'm a bit of a beer snob.

Beer snobs need not apply.

Its local cheap beer. Read the blog in the link in the OP. Yes I wrote it, but I think that explains it about as well as I can do here.

In defense of Boh during a Washington Post blind taste-test of cheap beer, defined as beer you can get a 6 pack for no more than 6 bucks, Boh was rated the best.

Beating out

Miller High Life

Pabst

Bud Light

Schlitz

Schaffer

National Bohemian

Combined score: 7.14286 (Taste: 3.7/5; Refreshment: 3.4/5)

Price: $8/12-pack at DeVino's in Columbia Heights

The surprise winner was Baltimore's own Natty Boh, which testers rated highest on flavor and third for refreshment. Some of the praise: "The best one -- actually tastes like beer!" "High carbonation and the most hops." "Zesty ... got a little more kick."

"Flavor! Weird!" wrote one Going Out Guru, who was obviously not expecting much after sampling a few other brews. Another praised Boh as "Mellow and smooth."

Of course, reactions were mixed. "Most assertive and palatable flavor," said one, damning with faint praise. "I would happily drink this beer because it doesn't have a nasty aftertaste," added another. Final view: "Not great, but at least distinctive"
