Dave's BrewFarm Heirloom Single Hop Lager


Dave's BrewFarm Heirloom Single Hop Lager.

Clear, crisp and golden hue, milky white froth atop, leaving lace and looking lovely.

Aroma: bright lemon zest, floral notes and touch of tart. Some pineapple and mango jumps on board.

Taste: Just a brief blast of hop bitterness at the fore…and then some more, never fading, never quitting. This Heirloom hop is not one I'm familiar with, so I'm feeling out these flavors. More of the citrus and the fruit, a small flash of sour, with bitterness slowly fading back. Malt component is light, clean, bready, and slightly caramel-sweet. A fine drinking, ever-so tasty lager.

From Farmer Dave: 6.4% ABV. A favorite locally grown variety in the single hop lager series. Three separate additions of Heirloom hops. Pils, Cara Red, and Caramel 20 malts."
