Commercial Description:
This golden Lager is brewed using a traditional German decoction mash. By decoction mashing, we are able to achieve a full malt profile that is complemented by the addition of spicy German hops. We condition our Dortmunder for a full eight weeks which allows the malt and hop characteristics within the beer to fuse together. All of these steps are evident in our final product: a medium- bodied golden lager showcasing a delicious malt flavor balanced with a Noble hop character. Malts: 2- Row, Munich 10L, Carapils Hops: Cluster, Hallertau, Tettnang

Draft sample at a Barrel House tasting at Teller’s of Hyde Park. Pours clear gold with a medium white head. Aroma of German hops, malts, straw, and honey. Flavor of honey, straw, hops, malts, grass, and spices. Light bodied, sharp, and crisp. Dry finish. Very nice Dortmunder.

Bottle. Pours an orange golden body with an explosive white head. Dusty dry apple aroma a hint of dried fruit and stale spice. A light sour grape note that probably should not be there but nevertheless its enjoyable. Once more into the bottle it feels more grainy, apple and moth like, a bit oxidized like the other 4 bottles i bought from these guys. Oh well what can ya do.

had this bottle from lexington, ky. it was on the sale section there, so my guess is it’s old. and boy did it taste off/old. really not much like any dortmunder i’ve had previously. this was super hazy amber orange color. that isn’t right, is it? aroma was pretty feety and a bit fruity/candyish. flavor was similar. it really wasn’t bad, but it was hardly what i was expecting. in someone else’s rating is "malt-bread caramel". i agree with that, too.

Bottle. Pours a thin amber with a cheese-hole head. Noisy body. Aroma is coppery peach and raisin. Flavor is grassy malt with a thin, light berry finish. Average moutheel. Probably an old bottle.

Good. My bottle may have been past its prime but the beer was still solid. Low alcohol, appropriate to the style. Light orange color and a thick, rocky, long-lasting head. Standard malt flavor, color is on the dark side for the style. A good beer.

poured a medium gold colour with a light white head. Pale malt aroma, slightly grainy, apple and grassy hop. Flavour was Good medium sweet malt body, some grassy bitterness and a light sweet fruity finish. This beer grew on me and I found myself taking bigger and bigger quaffs as I went.

22oz bottle-pours a thin white head and gold color. Aroma is grain/light malt/bread-caramel, secondary grassy hops. Taste is grain/light malt/bread-caramel, secondary grassy/spice hops, some (off?) fruit/yeast notes. Thanks decaturstevo for picking this out.

Deep gold pour with hints of red. Gooey white head and lace. Lemony caramelly with just a hint of hops. Lemon flavor, semi sweet, with very little bitter. Full bodied but aggrssive carbonation. Citrus flavor and fizziness make me wonder if it was a tad past its prime.
