This is a pale lager, brewed to a sessionable 4.2% ABV, and featuring beechwood smoked malt from Weyermann in Bamberg. This beer is absolutely fabulous as a thirst quencher while you’re standing over the BBQ, and reaches new levels of enjoyment when you pair it with food.
Just to make sure we were doing it right, we went back for a week to Bamberg, visiting our friends, favourite breweries, and of course, the Weyermann maltings. We’re very happy to report that all systems are definitely go. When you bring a lager to Germany and celebrated brewmasters are enthusing about how good your beer is - and especially your head retention - well, that’s validation enough for us!

Keg at the Bermondsey tap. Pours clear yellow with a modest, creamy white head. Solid gear, fairly dry, lots of smoke and pale wood. Light bodied with average carbonation. Balanced finish, more drying smoke, pale wood, ash. Nice stuff.
