Commercial Description:
While being a mild pilsner style beer, Bavarian Lager is our version of a clasic German "Helles" style of beer from Bavaria. Bavarian Lager is pale golden colored with a nice hop character over-laying mellow malt flavor.

Just aight. Not crazy about it, but not completely disgusted with it like other lagers. No skunk involved.

Bottle. Big, fluffy head. Aroma of malt and hops- medium yellow in color. Flavor is crisp and slightly hoppy. Taste some crackers, slightly sour in the finish. Well made, but my rating is lower than average only because this style isn’t my favorite- body is a bit too thin and light for my taste.

Bottle. Amber yellow with little yellow head. Not much here sweet malt in the aroma and no real hop presence. A little sweet and tangy with a weak hop offering. nah.

Thick and creamy body, pours a dark brown colour with a amber coloured head. Aroma is of dark fruit, bread and caramel. Taste is relatively smooth, semi sweet with light toasted malt character.

12oz, twist-off bottle, Cobalt Blue label. Deep orange to light amber color. Darker for a standard lager, more of A Dortmunder. Stinky, musty, malted pils malts. Flavor is light, thin finishes spicy. Easy to drink.
