A step above mass produced lager beers, Legend Lager offers the comfort of easy drinkability while also bringing a depth of flavor due to our use of 100% barley malt, yeilding a pure, bright malt flavor and a medium body. Modest hopping and cool fermentation temperatures make for a smooth character and a clean finish.

From the slightly over-pressurized can, it pours an ever so slightly hazy yellow golden color with a huge, long lasting, white head that ever so slowly reduces and leaves lacing. The nose gets a pleasant lightly scented citrus scent. The mouth gets a lightly citrus flavored malt.

Really solid crispyboi; not sure if this uses Vienna malt, but it’s got that Vienna lager vibe that I enjoy. Sweet, malty, clean.

Poured from a 12 ounce bottle into a nonic glass. Has a hazy light golden color. The smell was sort of neutral, basically I could not tell. For a lager, I thought the taste was ok. I have had better lagers, and I have had worse. Overall, I may buy this again but more than likely I will buy their brown ale which I always enjoy.

A little too malty for a lager. Slight hop notes in the taste but not a lot. The smell and taste seem to be mainly barley malt. The body is a bit right if not a tad heavy.

I keep returning to this beer when I know I'm going to be having more than just a round. It's drinkabilty and separation from the hop-ridden microbrews launched ad nauseum, make its fundamentaly sound taste unique! A very very solid beer
