Reference the "Noteproperty" of an object from within a string

Question

Hello...this is more of a learning question...I am just curious if there is a more effecient way to do something:
Lets say I have the following code (simplified version of what am I actually trying to do):
$ServerObject = New-Object System.Object
$ServerObject | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name ServerName -Value "MYSERVER"
$ServerObject | Add-Member -Type NoteProperty -Name OS -Value "WIN2008R2"
$Server = $ServerObject | Select-Object ServerName,OS
And I want to do something like this:
Write-Host "$Server.ServerName is blah blah blah...."
But obviously this does not work.  Is there a way to code this without creating a second variable?  For example, I know this will work:
$MyServerName = $Server.ServerName
Write-Host "$MyServerName is blah blah blah"
But I am wondering if there is a better way to do this without a second variable.  I have tried:
$(Server).ServerName
$(Server.Server)
{$Server.ServerName}
And a few others - but none of these work (other than using a second variable).  Obviously my real script involves 100's of servers in an array of objects, but for purposes of my question, the above code similutes what I am trying to do.  I have
also looked into concatenating the strings, but in my real script I am using Out-File and it tells me I cannot use the "+" operator for the -Input parameter...so I would still have to use a second variable.
Thanks

I was soooo close!  Thanks.  Oh and I think you missed a "(".  I think it should be:
Write-Host "$(($Server).ServerName) is blah blah blah"
thanks again,
