Honey Lager

$3.95

5.0%, 355mL

This beer drinks like a classic lager with a light touch of sweetness and floral notes on the nose. It has honey and bread dough character, with low bitterness and a gentle tannic dryness. It finishes with subtle candy notes of blue raspberry and red Twizzlers. Smooth, clean, with a fluffy white head.

We brewed this lager with honey from our own farm. Joe from Golden Goo has kept hives on the property for four years, and this is the first harvest that we’ve been able to add to a beer. Honey Lager is a marker of spring on the farm and helps us look forward to warmer days and longer nights.
