Modist Deviation 10

Modist Deviation 010. 5.6% ABV. Lager brewed with huskless barley. Modist Brewing Company, Minneapolis, MN.

Clear, bright golden color, smallish white head. 

In the nose: no bitterness, light hops, cereal grains, mostly malty, but altogether clean. 

In the mouth: Clean, malty, fruity. Just about nothing but nice. Smooth, easy, drinking. I have to educate myself on the difference between husked and huskless barley. One guess I'd offer is makes for a hearty, yet clean malt flavor. Little hops, no bitterness, good balance, moderate sweetness. Good ol' drinking lager, this one. 

I like it. Good lager, and guess what? I'm drinking it. 

 Deviation 010 is a smooth, full-flavored lager brewed with CDC Clear malt from experimental huskless barley from our partners at BSG CraftBrewing, lightly hopped with Denali, Huell Melon, and Bravo, and then fermented with our house lager strain. It’s lightly fruity, bready, drinkable, and clocks in at 5.5% ABV.  It’s good. Come and try it.
