James Page Iron Range Amber Lager

Brewed by Stevens Point Brewery
Style: Vienna
Stevens Point, Wisconsin USA

Clear coppery/amber color, with no head at all. Aroma, sweet, amlty, light graininess, minimal hops. Grainy on the palate, as well, but overall clean and smooth. Light bodied, but not thin, flavor, and it’s not a bad one, remains sip after sip, gulp after gulp. Not bad at all. A tasty little lager, when you’re not in the mood for anything more challenging. Good crossover brew, for the less adventurous.

This is the best beer that I have ever had. This beer is better than any commen Pilsner.

Poured from a bottle with a pretty clear amber/copper color. There wasn’t much for aroma. I detected some sort of sweet flavor to it under all the maltiness... possibly a caramel taste??? Palate seemed a little sticky leaving my mouth somewhat unsatisfied. Overall though i wouldn’t mind trying it again.

This is a good solid beer that can somethmes be a little watery. It has an average amount of bitterness, but not overpowering. The only thing lacking in this beer is that it may be a little to light.

On tap at the Metrodome. Very light malt aroma. Light red. Flavors of malt and citrus. Heavily carbonated and sour.

Rated at 35,000 feet on a Northwest flight from Detroit to DC. Hey...it was better then ordering the Bud Light. Sparkling amber, thick creamy off-white head. All light aromas of toasted caramel, white bread, hint of butter, with a very slight roasty, fruity undertone. Decent balance, somewhat sweet though with toasted caramel and honey being predominate. No bitternees unfortunately. Medium bodied, smooth soft carbonation, lightly toasted, semi-sweet finish. Nothing great obviously, but it beat the alternative.....

Can-on a Northwest Air flight-I don’t think Page actually brews the canned version, as it says New Ulm, MN-so maybe Schell contract brews it for them. Anyway, it was extremely off. A very harsh metallic finish and a flabby munich malt character that reminded me off a bad homebrew. The worst $5 I ever spent for a beer.

A little hoppy, but not much depth, seems thin. Aroma lacks, but has smooth and malty tones throughout. Excellent complex finish with a sweet aftertaste. Warm.
