Lighthouse Lager

Brewed by Lighthouse Brewing (Canada)
Style: Premium Lager
Victoria, Canada

A: Poured with an average-sized, white head, that diminished to about 1/2-finger size. Body is a nice golden color, and completely clear. S: Very light aroma - some grain and cooked corn. T: Mostly cooked corn coming through here; what I would expect from a lager. However, there is a bit of bite to it with a crisp finish. M: Medium-bodied with a thin texture, and average-to-fizzy carbonation. D: Sure, you can drink it, but that corn-flavor gets sickening pretty quick. Not much more than a basic Euro lager.

Crisp cereal malts with lemon and herbal hops apparent in the aroma. Brilliantly clear golden body is topped by a decent, fine bubbled and long lasting white head. Somewhat husky malt flavour with some creamed corn and a metallic aftertaste after the grassy bitterness. Green apple flavour emerges as it warms. Light body with strong carbonation that is prickly on the tongue and just a bit too gassy. Tulip glass. Fridge temperature. Can (Toby’s, May-07).

(Can) Purchased at the BC Liquor Store on Fort Street. Pours a frothy white head with a straw body. Nose and flavour of a grainy front finishing with a doughy malt palate. Your average lager.

On tap at The Railway Club, Vancouver. Smells a bit of bleach / chemical. Gold colour with thin white head. Bit thin and weird in mouth. Not a bad finish. Not a good lager.

on draft at irish pub in victoria. golden color mostly slight end appeal of bitterness. a moorage of slight mild malt character throughout. thin.

Pale straw colour like most lagers. Aroma is slightly malty with faint hops. Some flavour but rathger thin and light. Better than a lot of other macro canned beer.

Can. Light straw colour, with ok head (considering it’s in a can). No can taste. Aroma is fantastic for a lager. Malt is very....simpsonsy. I can’t describe it any other way. Crisp and refreshing with a low hop profile. A bit sweet for me. Better than most commercial lagers. Doesn’t taste as good as it smells. Splash it about under your armpits, may make a better cologne than a beverage.

Can. Pale golden with small frothy white head, quickly disappating, very fizzy. Fresh, crisp biscuity malt aroma with spicy hops. Flavor is a bit sweet, crisp & nice with a lingering hop tongue, & some citrus in the aftertaste. One of the nicer lagers I can say I’ve tried.
