St. George Lager is a sublime balance of subtle maltiness and lingering noble hoppiness. Based on a style of lager called Bavarian Helles, it is pale straw blond in color, but surprisingly full bodied and exhibiting only a low level of hops bitterness or aroma. Only the finest of traditional German Malt and Hops are used in this beer, which create the most delicate beer imaginable.

Rated from notes more than 10 years old. A microbrew made in the "Ethiopian"(!) style. Crisp, dry with an understated hops presence. Decent all around lager.

@South St–on tap-pours no head and gold color. Aroma is sweet grain. Taste is sweet grain, continental (hallertau?) hops.

Guest tap at South Street Brewery. Yellowish golden colored with moderate head retention. Grainy pils-like aroma with a very similar taste. Somewhat grassy. Kinda blah.

It had a nice clear golden color, with no head. There was but a faint aroma of cereal grains. The taste was akin to putting a 9v battery to your tongue, stinging and flavorless. I bought it as part of the variety six pack from the brewer at my local grocer. I was impressed by the others in the pack, but this was clearly generic filler. Maybe I just don’t like lager.

Bottle. Slightly sweet malt aroma. Golden yellow color with small head. Slightly sweet lemon and malt flavor with moderate hops finish. Moderate acidity and light carbonation. Stylewise, very nice.

Bottle from Immy. Color is a mix of light orange and dark yellow with some lacing. Aroma is present like a burnt lager, must be the malt. Taste is lackluster. Average everywhere around. Dont really get the nature of a beer like these.
