Mad Brewer R Lager

Brewed by The Brew Keeper / Mad Brewer
Style: Premium Lager
North Ridgeville, Ohio USA

The hops in this were very floral and citrusy and very present by nose and tongue. Has a great balance, the malts are there but really only seem to serve to accentuate the hop falvours rather than take any depth onto themselves. In the malt’s defense, however; it would be difficult to top the hops on this one.

12oz bottle from the Brewkeeper. Clear deep gold color with a medium white head. Malty aroma with some corn, caramel and vanilla characteristics and a touch of hop. Sweet and bready malt flavor with a crisp hop finish. Not bad for the style.

Bottle. Pours a medium gold with a dense but small head. Aromas are fairly light... a bit of bread and apple-like fruitiness. Flavor isn’t bad. There is a bit of a bitterness that weaves in and out with dough and apple flavors. It is a little more viscous than most light lagers.
