Lager
Avery Brewing Company

American lager will never be my favorite style, but enjoyable/drinkable. If I saw one in the cooler at Aunt Karen's birthday BBQ, I'd grab one. I would look for something more interesting, but would be okay swinging back to it.
Like the style demands, nothing here stands out; no surprises with the malt or hops. I've had more interesting versions that take chances by hewing closer to the hop profiles of better known American lagers (coughcoughSpud) and deliver more flavor.

 

I really enjoy this one in terms of craft lagers, easy drinking crushable, just chillin kinda stuff.

I agree with my previous sentiment however im knocking the feel because there's a huge disparity to me from having this in the can versus the glass. I like that sweet spot where it probably won't matter but clearly the other 5 are staying in the can. Maybe it's not cold enough now lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i guess every brewery needs one of these now, especially an operation like avery, where so many of their beers are crazy interesting and freakishly strong, i think this is a nice and needed addition to their lineup. its fine beer, but i expect a lot more than fine after being a big avery fan for years, i thought they could do more with a simple yellow beer for some reason. its clean enough, easy drinking, and pretty well made of course, but its largely unremarkable, and really doesnt turn me on in any meaningful way. i had it on tap, and it wasnt maybe as cold as it could be, ill have to try this again from a frosty can right from the fridge. its deep yellow in color with a short white head, pretty good clarity, and enough carbonation. a little tiny kiss of malt sweetness in nose and on the front end, but then dry in the finish with a little bit of a citrus snap to the hops at the end, dry and without bitterness at all. i can hardly taste the lager yeast, which makes this beer seem overly simplified, especially for a brewery i expect big flavors from, but whats here is nice, clean, and agreeable. nothing special at all, but a nice drinker and something to balance out all the heavy and intense beers they do here. i wanted to love it though, and i just couldnt. nice with some greasy food.

In Brighton on first day at James and Allison's new home.
LOOK: Crystal clear pale gold with plenty of all white head that displays great retention. Simple but impressive appearance.
AROMA: Lots of grain, cereal malts some yeast esters.
TASTE: True to the Lager, Pilsner style, while having more going for it in the style. Clean, refreshing bread malts
with a touch of floral hops.
Grains persist in aftertaste adding a light finish.

 

A clear light gold color. Small white head with a little bit of lace.
Fresh, outdoors, grassy aroma.
Mild grain taste. Light touch of hops.
Light-bodied. Crisp and refreshing.

Pale, straw yellow body with slow rising carbonation; relatively thin yet sticky and frothy white head. Decent grassy and herbal smell; dried grass. Light cereal grain flavor; some dull spiciness; balanced amount of mild hoppiness. Light body; crisp; very soft malt sweetness.

A decent American lager, relatively light and feathery.
