Third Street Brewhouse Minnesota Gold Lager

Third Street Brewhouse Minnesota Gold Lager. 3.9 % ABV. 12 IBU. ThirdStreet Brewhouse, Cold Spring, MN.

Clear, bright gold, large white head, softly settling.

In the nose: light, delicate, subtle...not much more to it. Soft malt character.

In the mouth: Light hops. Lightly toasted malt. Supremely drinkable. Crisp and clean. Nothing wrong with it. Actually, quite good.

This one's been around for years, but I'm tasting it for the first time because someone finally gave me a sample. I was never going to buy one on my own. Now that I've had it, hey it's a classic light lager. And you can drink it. Take that for what it's worth.

We are Minnesota, Land of 10,000 lakes. If we’ve got anything up here, it’s water. And we like our water. But more than that… we like to see our water put to good use. That’s why our brewers made Minnesota Gold, to see real Minnesota water brewed into a classic, premium quality lager. So please, go ahead and crack open a can. Here in your hands is a clean taste of Minnesota, from us to you.
