Hoppy Lager

Reflector has been (in classic us fashion) massively dry hopped. The dry hop profile of Amarillo, Simcoe and Idaho 7 imparts fresh citrus & pine aromas. It's also 5%, crisp and entirely crushable.

Straw colour with slight haze. Sort of an apricot nose, and it’s fairly fresh. Low bitterness and again that sort of stone fruit character. Like a golden ale, more than anything else. I mean there’s no particular lager character.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a hazy copper golden with a medium white head. Aroma brings out bright grassy hops upfront, with crisp crackery malt, and a slight herbaceous character. Flavour is vibrant and fresh, with bright herbal, grassy hops upfront, and a crisp biscuity malt. Clean, bright and well-balanced. Excellent lager.

Taster shared with Alex. Appearance: clear blonde with a white head. Aroma: some generic flowery and fruity hops. Taste: similar, crispy. Overall: good lager.

Smells of soft vegetably hops with some sweetness, has clear yellow body with little foam. Flavour is all juicy hops. Mouthfeel is crisp anyway but not too crisp. This is just kind of a weak attempt at yet another local IPA that doesn't stand out.

Poured from the tap. Slightly hazy blonde with white head. Light corn, mild grassy hops, pretty boring.

2019-07-21, draught at Parallel 49, Vancouver, 6-3-7-3-14=33
Hazy blond colour. Clean and decent lager.

2019-07-11, can from High Point, Vancouver, 7-3-6-3-14=33
Hazy blond colour, a bit pale, small head. Mild aroma, some straws(nice), some corn (only initially), not enough hop (6.5). The body is light, the mouthfeel is very dry, some crispness, light but decent malt base, light touch of chamomile; the hopping is timid, more bitterness than an American Lager, less than a proper German Lager, with mild grassy character.
Quite good.
