“180” is a perfect score in the highly spirited world of competitive BBQ…so what better name for the perfect beer to pair with award winning Joe’s KC BBQ? A collaboration between Joe’s KC & Free State Beer, 180 Lager scores high on refreshment, with a clean, crisp malt profile and just enough citrusy hop character to balance this golden-hued light lager.

(review from March 2023) Crisp, clean, well balanced lager with good mouthfeel and a lighter malty flavor. Very slammable and quaffable but better appreciated on a hot summer day.

Clear gold color with a moderate foamy white head and some decent lacing.
The aroma is light crackery malt.
The taste is light malt with some grassy herbal notes in the finish.
The body is light/medium, good carbonation level, smooth and very drinkable.
Altogether, this is a pleasant, refreshing brew, should be a good summer cooler or accompaniment to Bar-B-Que anytime.
