From being an American Industrial Revolution juggernaut with the first fully integrated textile mill in the country to one of the very biggest players of the global watch industry with its Waltham Watch Factory to being hailed as the country's first "Silicon Valley" thanks to the great transportation provided by Route 128 that gave rise to office parks populated by defense and tech companies, Waltham has a rich history
Waltham Lager is golden-colored, light, crisp, and bubbly with a refreshing finish. Much like the City, this beer is full of character and soul, and it comes with a promise to keep Waltham's legacy alive and well.

Poured from a can into a pint glass
Appearance – The beer pours a clear golden straw color with a small head of white foam. The head fades very fast, leaving a touch of foamy lace on the sides of the glass.
Smell – The aroma is a mix of fruit and grain, with a cereal grain smell paired with notes of pear and apricot. Along with these smells comes a touch of earth and a bit of grass.
Taste- The taste begins with a grainy malt flavor mixed with a moderate showing of caramel and some light corn like flavors. There is also a light level of sweetness being of a honey and pear nature, along with a backdrop note of earth and some light floral flavors. These tastes really stay rather consistent throughout the taste profile, leaving one with a crisp and grainy taste to linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – The body is light and crisp with a moderate carbonation level.
Overall – While only at 4 % abv, the brew is rather flavorful. Makes for a nice, crisp, and clean tasting session brew.

16 oz. can dated 3/5/25
Pours mostly clear straw yellow gold with a creamy frothy white foam head. Smells like lemony citrus, light toasty bready crackery grainy malts, mild apple, pear, and earthy floral grassy herbal hops. Tastes fairly sweet with light toasty honey bready crackery grainy malts, yellow apple, pear, hint of apricot, some lemony citrus, and earthy floral grassy herbal hops. Feels medium plus bodied, creamy and crisp with smooth moderate carbonation. Overall a really nice American lager.
