Commercial Description:
"Our Lager (Dortmund-style) is brewed with pale, Munich and Vienna malts and is moderately hopped with Hallertauer hops. The Dortmund style evolved in the steel-making town that bares the name and is a hearty lager with great heft in the mid-palate. The hops balance the malt but not overtly so. Canadian 2-Row Pale Malt Durst Munich and Vienna malt Magnum - Bittering hops Hallertauer - Flavor & aroma hops ABV: 4.8% IBUs: 35"

12oz Bottle - Downtown Liquors, Davis Square, MA. Snappy, wheat crisp aroma. A bit of fresh hops. Pours a brilliant rich sunshine golden, with a frothy well-lacing, ivory head. Flavor is delectable. Satisfying, toothy pils malt holds up to a snappy crisp edge of pils malt and a nice cool lagered quality. Crisp, clean, friendly, and fresh. This is a very well done lager. Some deeper wheat biscuit, honey, and grass notes rise from the bottom. Very enjoyable.

(bottle) Pours flaxen in color and comes to rest in the glass with a yellow-orange hue and a large white head (slightly fizzy). Complex smell, yeasty, a little doughy, and fruity (grapes). Lively carbonation makes it squirm on the palate. Feels smooth, dry, and crisp. Bready taste with a barely perceptible bitterness in the beginning and a slight sour tartness at the end. A good, well-balanced lager overall.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear gold with a white head that lasted through the entire glass. Moderate carbonation. Light floral aroma. First sip tastes of light malt sweetness and corn cereal. Crisp and dry aftertaste. A pleasant and enjoyable brew.

Sparkling clear, light golden lager with a small, creamy, white head. Decent retention with sparse lacing. The aroma and flavor are both malty with notes of butterscotch, butter and light herbs. Decently balanced by the diverse hops. Medium-bodied with a syrupy/sticky mouthfeel and fizzy carbonation. Short, bitter-sweet, creamy finish. Good stuff... for a helles.

Pours with a pale golden body topped by a thin white head with some lacing. Slightly grainy malt aroma with corn notes and a slight hop balance. Slightly sweet malt flavor well balanced with hops and a slight caramel note. Light bodied and very smooth.
