Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of corn tortilla, lemon grass, garden herbs, and faint aroma of sausage fat with a satiny, crisp, dry light-to-medium body and a delightful, snappy finish displaying notes of mixed roasted seeds, lemongrass, and honey. Light and crushable with just enough flavor and lift; stock a few extra of this true friend for the summer fishing trip.

American Style Lager

American style lagers are very light straw in color and range in alcohol from 4-5%. These lagers are clean, crisp, and light in body and flavor with low-to-no detectable hop or malt aromas. In addition to malt, many of these beers contain adjuncts such as corn and rice that are used to lessen the body and flavor. These beers originated in the US as versions of the pilsner style. Noteworthy examples of this style include: Capital Supper Club, Stevens Point Special Lager and Full Sail Session Premium Lager.
