Brooklyn Lager
In the late 1800’s Brooklyn was one of the largest brewing centers in
the country, home to more than 45 breweries. Lager beer in the “Vienna”
style was one of the local favorites. Brooklyn Lager is amber-gold in
color and displays a firm malt center supported by a refreshing
bitterness and floral hop aroma. Caramel malts show in the finish. The
aromatic qualities of the beer are enhanced by “dry-hopping”,
the centuries-old practice of steeping the beer with fresh hops as it
undergoes a long, cold maturation. The result is a wonderfully flavorful
beer, smooth, refreshing and very versatile with food. Dry-hopping is
largely a British technique, which we’ve used in a Viennese-style beer
to create an American original.
