Lug Tread is our tribute to the classic Kölsch beers of Cologne, Germany. Lug Tread is top-fermented (like an ale) and then cold-aged (like a lager), giving it light ale notes complemented by a lager-like crispness. It is versatile and well suited to any season or occasion, with satisfying, chewy malts to warm in the colder months, and a refreshing, crisp finish to quench a summer’s thirst. The tracks left in the mud from a small tractor’s Lug Tread tell the tale of honest hard work and close family ties.

The bones of a Kolsch with some more prominent ale characteristics. Sweet pilsner-like malt, grain, honey and splashes of citrus and field berries. Crisp, clean and balanced

On Tap @ C’est What beer fest 2006.
nice and crisp, like you would expect, a very nice malt backbone, similar to a good pils. solid beer, but i dont think it would hold up in a bottle. Rerate: bought 2 ceramic 750ml directly from the brewery, they had been bottled 30 minutes before i bought them, so this is pretty much as fresh as this beer gets! LOvely pour, a golden, but slightly amber pour. Lots of nice biscuity malty, and breadiness in the nose. Some nice hops, and more biscuit malt in the flavour, just a great lager, when this stuff is fresh, its outstanding!

(Can) Pours clear golden with good white head. Subtle aroma of light biscuit malt and grassy hops. Light body with plenty of carbonation. Light citrus, hints of biscuit malt and firm hoppy bitterness. Very drinkable.

Lemon, biscuit malt, and straw aroma. Golden yellow with large white head and moderate effervescence. Lightly sweet lemon, biscuit malt, and mildly bitter straw flavor. Good body.

Kind of a beer beer; no frills, not even offering up the normal Kölsch grainy brightness, just a good ale that tastes like a good ale. Memorable in its lack of specificity.

Can from LSBO, Grimsby, ON. Non existing aroma. Gold colour. Blend of macro and apple taste. Really clean ending. A mixed bag of both macro and craft but it grew on me.
