Formerly known as Stegmaier Summer Stock Lager.
Stegmaier Summer Stock Lager is a straw-colored traditional pilsner beer with golden highlights and a creamy white head. Its perceived citrus nose and supreme balance of malt and hops have essentially made this beer terrific thirst quencher for summer. It’s crisp, clean and refreshing.

Crystal clear golden coloured body with a thick, fast-dying, ugly lace leaving white stain. Aroma of malt, cardboard, funk, yeast, dog food and not much else that’s pleasant. Light-bodied; Funky malt flavour with a bit of cardboard, some light fruits and a gross sweetness. Aftertaste shows some odd funky notes, stale malt, yeast and bad sugars. Overall, nothing too pleasant - not a good beer showing any good qualities from start to finish. Drinkable, but barely. I sampled this twelve ounce bottle purchased from Wegman’s In Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on 22-July-2011 sampled at home home in Manassas, Virginia on 05-August-2011.

Labeled Stegmaier Summer Stock Pils: Horrid smell of buttery bran and corn flakes, with shitty undertones. Clear yellow, thin head. Watery. Lemony cardboard flavor. I get the sense that the attempt is to be different from a macro, but different isn’t always better. Pretty bad. Side note: After rating, I noticed this beer has undergone a series of re-branding. I think I know why.

bottle - Pours light gold with a one finger white head. There’s a mild aroma of pale malt with a hint of hops. It tastes of sweet bready malt with some mild hops that unfortunately lack a fresh, crisp flavor, carrying a hint of cardboard instead. It’s not bad, but there are certainly better pilseners around.

Sample at the Hills Market Summertime Beer Tasting on 06/29/2010. This brew is a pale yellow-amber color with a thin and fizzy white head that evaporates quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Sweet grainy malt and mild hops in the nose. Light body with a lightly spiced hops and malt flavor. The finish is mildly bitter with a short hoppy aftertaste. A little better than expected, but still a barely average Pils.

Looks like the ubiquitous pale lager, sparkles nicely in the glass. Aroma is mildly sweet and that carries over to the taste. Decent session brew. Pretty light for a straight pale lager. A clever lager without any oppressive insults. S5L2T5F3O12

Bottle (Knight’s Head Lager). Pours a thin amber with a small head and grainy aromas. A bit of dusty grain in the nose is about it... Flavor is more of the same... pretty grain heavy, maybe a touch of orange juice hops if you want to stretch things a bit... Meh... fairly solid, but pretty plain Jane...
