This unfiltered "lawnmower" beer is named after the brewer's symbol, the six pointed star, that was painted on wooden barrel heads to signify the brewer, the four main ingredients, and the beer's purity.

Well balanced, flavorful, hearty backbone full of malt and enough hop to let you know your done with a full week's work. One of the best lagers I've had, period. When your city is claim to the title hog butcher to the world you need a beer to feed the city, alas this is it. Perfect lager, a la Chicago. Drink this all night!

On-tap at Haymarket. Served in a 4oz taster stange.
A - Served with a finger of persistent white creamy foam that leaves behind sheets of lace. Slightly cloudy peach body.
S - Sharp grain character, is there wheat in this? Light fruitiness and herbal hops. Somewhat understated.
T - Clean grain character, light fruitiness, a touch sweeter than the nose. Some herbaceous hops. Finishes very clean.
M - Crisp and refreshing. Medium-light body with a slightly grainy texture. Carbonation is medium-high but appropriate for the style.
D - A pleasant surprise. Much better than the Speakerswagon Pils. Just a nice pleasant lager for a hot summer day. A beer I could session no problem, and something I'd likely order again if I needed a palate cleanser or break between bigger beers.
