This Lager is a Dortmunder Export or German style of beer which is also known as the ‘Labourers Pilsner’. This is a perfectly balanced beer in which neither malt nor hops dominate. It’s a deep blonde colour, good hop bitterness and aroma, full mouth feel and crisp finish. The balanced nature of this beer means it’s quite sessionable to drink but technically difficult to brew to a consistently perfect balance. Dortmunder style is well suited to our local water in Drogheda. The best European Pilsner malt provides a complex malt profile, while traditional Saaz hops give the distinctive hop character of the style.
