Dortmunder-Style Lager collaboration brewed with the Wish You Were Beer Show

- - -

Dortmunder Lagers were born around 1868 in Dortmund, Germany and became the favorite of Coal Miners and Industrial Workers. After all, what could be better than a cold, full-bodied beer after a long shift underground?

With an ABV of at least 5.0%, they were crushable (before that was a thing), but strong enough to provide a much-needed kick. The sulfate levels in the water of the region helped create a beer with a light, crisp, balanced, and bready finish.

Dortmunder? Now you know her!
