Commercial Description:
Firestone Lager is an exquisite, full-flavored brew with a bright golden hue and a crisp, refreshing finish. Floral hops and crystal malts forge an elegant balance between delicate aromas, a soft palate and a firm hop character.

A very fragrant floral hop aroma that goes from start to finish. Very clean malt flavor, but a little heavy on the hopping.

Very light yellow amber. white thick head that lingers for awhile. Surprising lacing [at least to me] Light slightly fruity malt aroma. Crisp light malty flavor with some hop element. Could be a session beer, but probably better on a hot sunny summer day, not a cool autumn evening.

For a US pilsner this is not too bad, and I really shouldn't be surprised when I see the effort put into their Double Barrel. Well-balanced, combining sweet honey-ish malts and a moderately bitter crisp hoppiness.

Very light amber color well carbonated with a nice foamy head. Malty sweet aroma, earthy on the nose. Semi-sweet flavor, fairly well balanced, citrus and malt notes. Very quaffable. Not bad.

Medium gold color, slightly cloudy, small head. A hoppy and malty lager. Good flavor. Rounded mouthfeel, Slightly citrusy. Finish is crisp. Aftertaste is slightly bitter.

malty nose, clear yellow body, very drinkable. A pretty decent lager. certainly would be good on a summer's day

Medium gold with a small white head, prominent malty/yeasty nose. Malt character is sweet and slightly fruity, has more substance and good hops presence for a lager. Overall a pleasant, drinkable lager.
