Samuel Smiths Organic Lager

Brewed by Samuel Smith
Style: Pale Lager
Tadcaster, England

Clear golden yellow, thin, smooth, spicey, citrus, little bready, slight hop finish.

Samuel Smiths Organic Lager is a very clear, sparkling, golden beer with a thick, pillowy white head that leaves nice lacing. It has a faint, peppery aroma. I has a smooth medium-light body with a pretty crisp finish. It’s a mellow flavor: a little corny and a little spicy. It tastes clean. There’s nothing really stand-out here. It’s pretty plain, but very chuggable.

Bottled 355ml. It pours a golden beer with a decent head. The nose is mainly of vegetables and lemon - kind of spicy. Mediocre taste. Metallic, slightly salty with a lot of vegetables showing up. Buttery with hints of crackers. Poor lacing. Bitterish finish. It reminds me of a cheap lager. Pretty bad.

A better lager than most, but still nothing to write home about. Watery, pale, and without much flavor, I’m left unimpressed.

Pours a bright golden colour with a fairly large white head. aroma is a little grainy, and at times a little yeasty as well. initial malted taste followed up by a stale hop flavor. fulfilling on the palate, plenty of carbonation but just not enough flavor for me.

Fairly light pour with a short-lived, foamy topper. Sweet, malty aroma, with a hint of wine or cheese in there too. This is a full-flavored, slightly sweet lager. This has hops that are more flowery and peppy than most lagers have. There is also a touch of that carob-molasses flavor that Samuel Smith’s brews tend to have. The finish is clean, and it does not stumble into wimpy territory like too many organic beers do. This is one of the best lagers out there.

Bottle, pours a clear yellow with a decent head. Aroma is kinda malty very weak. Flavor is sweet and a little bit tangy. Body is thin, kinda boring beer.

Bottled: Wanted a bit more from this beer! Pours a golden colro with a head that disapears to a white lacing. Smells of malts and tastes of sweet malts with hints of fruits.
