Dave's BrewFarm Little Wolf Lager
Dave's BrewFarm Little Wolf Lager. 4.5% aBV.
Appearance: clear, bright golden color, slim, but lasting white head. Looking good.
Aroma: Little bit of lemon, touch of spice, nice hop presence.
Taste: smooth and clean and easy as can be-zee. Bright hoppiness leaps upon the palate, and plays about for a spell. Lean bodied, light malt character, but with just enough biscuity malt flavor. Ends on a dry note, clearing the palate. It's an unbridled lager, unchained and unfettered.
When I have a beer like this, I think about how bad and boring many mainstream lagers are, and far removed a brew like this is from them. What if you took the flavor away? What if you took the charm out? Plenty of fruit emerges. Low bitterness. Major flavor. Yum. This is nice. Creamy. Citrus-y. Clean and smooth.
Hey, what's Farmer Dave say? "The second in the Little Wolf series. Pale and rye malts, Azacca, Bramling Cross and Simcoe hops, fermented with a lager yeast. Smooth, crisp and hoppy!"
