Fehr's XL
Akasha Brewing Company

Frank Fehr was one of the first brewers to use the "new" adjunct style beers that quickly became popular in the US. He used 6 row barley from the upper midwest and about 30% rice for a lager with better flavor than beer made with local 2 row barley. Lagers made before prohibition had more hops added than lagers of today, as much as 2 to 6 times the amount of hops used today. Our pre-prohibition lager uses Cluster hops, some of the first hops to be commercially grown in the States and finishes with Hops from the Noble family, a centuries old hop at is just right for the clean fresh taste of Fehr’s XL.
