Based on the blonde export lagers invented in late-19th century Germany, our Golden Export Lager balances a subtly sweet, toasty malt character with spicy, floral hops. Slightly stronger than the related Helles and Pilsner styles, Golden Export still aims to refresh. Part of Port City's Rotating Lager Series.

Pint can from Total Wine Gainesville, VA, 7/30/22. Hazy amber large tan head, good retention. Aroma of doughy malt, green and floral hop. Taste is sweet malt, white bread, floral and green hop. Mild citrus. Even milder mint. Crisp, a bit too sweet. Nice overall.

Pure crisp golden and very clear body with a thinnish, one to two centimetre tall pure white head that fades quickly, but leaves a noticeable head on top. Aroma of grassy, very biscuity and malty components with a light bitterness and some soft lager yeast in the nose with way more malts than any hops. Light to Medium-bodied; Rich biscuity and herbal maltiness dominates with a dry characteristic and an easy-drinking profile with some lighter grassy notes and only a faint bit of the hops, but the malt shines through. Aftertaste shows the dry and floral qualities with a big bitterness from both the lager yeast and the lighter alpha acid, but still noticeable German hops. Overall, a nice, refreshing, but still fairly easy-drinking lager with some dry notes and a lot of malts with a herbal characteristic and a finish of grass. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from Giant Food in Alexandria (East Glebe) in Potomac Yard, Alexandria, Virginia on 15-April-2021 for US$1,99 sampled on the streets of New York with my kids on 01-May-2021.

Half liter pour at Port City brewing. POured a clear, lightly golden yellow color with a huge, foamy white head. Aroma was crisp, clean, light malt sweetness. Some grassy, sweet character. Really good job on this one.
