Brooklyn Lager

The second installment of my Brooklyn series, Brooklyn Lager.  This is definitely on the top of my list for favorite lager beers.  This beer is considered a Vienna Lager, kind of a little brother to the Oktoberfest.  Here are my notes:

 

Aroma - Toasty sweet malt.  Slight floral hops.  Hint of alcohol.

Appearance - Clear, amber lager.  Thin off white head that laces down the glass.

Flavor - Pleasant malt upfront; soft, toasty, bready, Munich like.  Sharp hop bitterness, slight floral hop presence.  Very balanced and clean.  Sweet malt after taste.

Mouth-feel - Medium mouth-feel and medium carbonation.  Soft across the palate.

Overall - What a great lager.  Represents what a lager is meant to be; clean, balanced, and very drinkable.
