Founders Trigo Hoppy Wheat Lager. 6.3 % ABV. 35 IBU. Founders Brewing, Grand Rapids, MI.
Sometimes categorized as IPL, or India Pale Lager, but also called a "pale wheat lager." Confusing, just a bit.
Lightly hazy, pale golden color, slim white head on top.
In the nose: citrusy hop notes, slightly sweet, wheat-y.
In the mouth: Starts out snappy and sweet, wheat texture is all over the palate. Medium bodied, long finish. And tasty. Smooth. This'll be down my gullet and out of the glass in no time flat.
We’re strong believers that the only thing better than brewing beer is brewing beer with friends. We worked with our pals at Mahou San Miguel to bring the recipe for Trigo (Spanish for ‘wheat’) to life. They brought their lager-brewing expertise and we brought our hopping expertise. The result is a clean and crisp wheat lager with big, American-hopped aromatics. Salud!
