Fargo Original is a traditional, unfiltered German-style Helles lager that’s perfect for when you want something light, crisp, and uncomplicated. The aroma is lead by pilsner malt paired with subtle spicy hop notes and a clean lager yeast character. The flavor is well balanced between the pils malt sweetness, the restrained bittering, and the crisp finish from extended lagering. Prost!

Can shared with Jeremy. Average lager, grainy, mildly sweet. But more importantly, a much sought after ND tick. Sweet! Thanks!

Sample at GABF 10/07/2017, thanks to my bro for assistance with note-taking. Clear pale golden color with a thin white head that burns away quickly. Spotty lace. Aroma of fruit, yeast and malt. Light body with flavors of citrus, bready malt and fruity yeast. The finish is fruity with a malty aftertaste. Decent overall.

Can. Lemon, lactic acid, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with giant white head. Sweet tangy lemon, milky biscuit malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body. Tasty citrusy lager.

Can: Lightly hazy, yellow-gold with a foamy white head. Lemon, yeast, grain aroma. Taste is slightly sour grain malt, lemon juice....grass and peel bitter. Very citric and acidic...and quite a bit of farmhouse feel to it.... different for a pale lager, but quite enjoyable.

Tap at JL Beers Bismarck I’m pretty hungover after trying to have fun in this town so easing into travel day with a pale lager. Pours gold light nose of straw and pepper. Tastes the same light lemon as well. Served very cold and it’s crisp not bad for style. N
