Flossmoor Station Frankenstein Dortmunder

On tap, and served to plastic at the Oktoberfest party. Poured an orangy amber with a modest, off white, bubbly foam head and plastic restricted but fair lacing. The nose was light Pils malt and noble aromas, with soft grain and a hint of sweetness. The flavor continued these notes with a low but noticeable hop bitterness and good carbonation A clean, sessionable brew that went very well with the tasty fest food that was offered.

On tap at the station dueing the Oktoberfest party. Pours slightly hazed gold with white head. Aroma is grassy with some grains. Flavor is grainy with bready malts and touch of hops. Pretty sessionable dortmunder.

on tap at FS. pours clear gold with white head. the aroma has a healthy dose of noble hops leaving a nice grassy aroma. a refreshing balance of sweet grain, biscuit, and grassy hop notes. extremely tasty and refreshing. one of the best american examples i’ve had.

Served a mostly clear, golden/amber body under a long lasting, frothily-settling white head. Mellow, balanced aroma leaning toward herbal hops and grounded by honey-touched wheat. Consistent, steady, fresh, peppery bitterness carried by a hefty body. Deceptively smooth while satisfyingly bitter, after three mug-club pints I can say this was monstrously sessionable. ~~~~~~~~~~ On draught, Flossmoor Station Restaurant & Brewery, Flossmoor, IL.

Slightly hazy golden body a thin white head. Bready aroma with a hint of spice. Very smooth and refreshing. Malty sweet up front with bread and caramel. Finishes with a nice peppery bite. Quite enjoyable.

On tap at Flossmoor and served in a nonik. This poured a darker golden hue with a thin, bubbly white head that somewhat lasted. Decent lace. The aroma was bready, lightly sweet, and had a touch of noble hops. The flavor had sweet malt, light toast, bread, and a light herbal hoppiness. Nice, fuller body with light carbonation. Good session beer and a nice representation of the style.

Nice crisp and malty. Aroma is sweet with some hints of hops, bread and a little pepper. The only thing i didn’t like was the bread aroma and flavor. Other than that this is a solid brew.

On tap at the brewpub: This is Flossmoor’s GABF Pro-Am entry, the "Am" part being Steve Kramp of the BOSS Homebrew Club. He and brewmaster Bryan Shimkos came up with a dandy sessionable lager from Steve’s recipe. It poured a slightly hazed golden body with a smallish but sustained head. The aroma had some biscuity malt and sweet grains offset by an earthy, grassy hoppiness. Nicely balanced and medium bodied, the flavor had a first rush of the malty sweetness quickly followed by herbal, peppery hop flavors and bitterness. Very nicely done.
