Union Barrel Works Lager

Brewed by Union Barrel Works
Style: Dortmunder/Helles
Stevens, Pennsylvania USA

On tap at the Union Barrel Brew Pub. Poured a medium golden color with a small sized white head. Aromas and tastes of citrus, lightly bready and some honey sweetness.

Tap at the brewpub. Poured a dark gold, almost a light orange. Aroma was mostly of malt and citrus. Flavor was much of the same, some honey and didn’t pick up much hops. Good mouthfeel; pretty good for the style.

Tap @ UBW. Poured a slightly hazed deep gold. The aroma was malty, toasty and has a hint of fruit. The flavor is malty with a light hop finish. Long dry and bitter finish. Light-medium bodied.

Draft. Turbid deep gold pour with off-white head. This is perhaps the most turbid lager I’ve ever seen. Aroma of hopcitrus, pale honey malt. Tastes of pale malt, with mid-palate honey, giving way to some finishing hops and citrus. Medium to light palate heft.

A very good lager. Good body, also a nice colour to it, has a nice spice to it with a fair hint of hops blended in. Nice brew.

Supposed to be a Dortmunder I beleive. Although, the first sample I had, was real nice and to style, I think the pint I ordered afterwards was either not ready yet, or an entirely different beer. The small sample was pretty damn good thoughh for a dortmunder. Nice clear golden, fluffy lasting white head. Aroma is nice bready malts, crisp clean hops, and a touch of mineral salts. Good bready malt flavor, cut by a clean herbla and lighlty spicy hop finish. Clean and easy drinking.

Another light offering from UBW, golden appearance, not much head and no lacing, smooth & crisp but watered down & a little bland

Good lager here... golden color and pretty cloudy, which I didn’t expect. But very smooth and seemed to have a tiny bit of sweetness or fruitiness in the flavor. Maybe I was just wasted.
