This Munich style lager was brewed with German Pilsner and Munich malts. The result is a very crisp and clean profile that really lets the high-quality malt character shine through. The sweetness of the malt is balanced with generous additions of First Gold and Tettnang hops. To condition the brew, we aged it for 50 days in French oak barrels formerly used to age red wine. The resulting oak character is prominent and complex with faint red wine notes but not overpowering.

Draft. Apple, cherry, and barley malt aroma. Hazy golden yellow with moderate head. Sweet apple and barley malt flavor. Mildly bitter herbal and alcohol finish. Less cider-like that the Debbie.
