Collaboration with Threes Brewing
Collaboration with our buddies from Threes Brewing in Brooklyn. This rice lager is crisp & dry with subtle notes citrus-forward back note from the addition of black limes. 10% of the proceeds from the sale of this beer will be donated to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) as part of their People Power intiative, championing voting rights. Yay for lager!! Yay for liberty!!

Beer drinking for a good cause--sign me up! This rice lager pours with exceptional clarity. Small cap of foam quickly dissipates. Clean, crisp, ever so slightly hoppy, with a drying finish. I'm guessing the curious citrusy notes I'm picking up are from the black limes? I like it, and want another.

Look: Pours bright golden yellow with a couple fingers of head in this relatively skinny glass. The bubbles are fairly large, and dissipate quite quickly, though a thing ring of them remains around the edge. There is no lacing left on the glass. Some bubbles are floating up throughout the glass. (3.5)
Smell: Typical lagery smell, noble hops. Lime is also prominent, as expected. Overall, fairly subdued, even in style. (3.5)
Taste: Pleasant. Light, clean and crisp. I’m not sure I’m versed enough in lagers to really notice the rice in the taste, but the limes are definitely here. Lime taste is natural, not artificial. It’s a bit grainy, but in a good way. Some lingering bitterness. (4)
Feel: Body is very light, with relatively little carbonation for the style. Actually, I think that more carbonation wouldn’t hurt. No alcohol in the taste, as expected for a low ABV lager. (3.5)
Overall: Quite happy with this for what it is. It’s an extremely drinkable, quality-made lager. Limes add a nice touch. Would buy again. (3.75)
