We have known Bates of Duration since his time at BBNo, and thought it was time we made something together. We have enjoyed their light lagers in the past, and thought why not brew a Rice Lager (our first adjunct lager) for the later summer!
A light straw colour with a dense white foam, we used Tettnanger hops late which gives a light lemon and grassy aroma. Up front are delicate floral/jasmine flavours from the rice which quickly make way for a crispy dry finish, that has you coming back for another sip. We have really been looking forward to packing this one, and we hop you like it as much as we do. One for in the sun!

Super drinkable. Nice fresh pale biscuits, soft bitter straw, a little grass. Lean crispy cereal. Nicely rounded, well balanced. Clean, dry and lightly bitter to finish. Well made.

A light haze on this paleish gold beer, a decent pale cream head. Airy, semi dry and finely crisp palate. Thin pale malts. Plenty of lager tang here along with flor aspects and a touch of macro lager tasting paper. The back end is better, cooling pine and a pleasant lemony cut. Light dry finish. Decent, a bit more hop to boss the meh malts would be even better.

Tap at the brewery taproom bermondsey. A mostly clear pale greenish yellow coloured pour with a fine white head. Aroma is crisp light grains, pilsner malts, straw, apple esters, rice husks. Flavour is composed of semi sweet, light tang, super crisp, light cereal grains, mellow green apple, light crisp mineral in the finish. Palate is super crisp, light grainy, mineral notes. Spritzy carbonation. Decent lager beer.
