COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brewed with a blend of pale malts and generous amounts of German noble hops, Sympathy for the Lager captures the best of both worlds: the clean, refreshing character of a Lager and the huge taste that craft beer drinkers deserve.

Can. Pours clear dark gold with slight white head. Nice hops for a lager with a very slightly-bitter finish. Bready with slight spice. Better-than-average lager for sure.

Tried this beer on tap at The Flying Saucer in Houston, TX. Crisp clean lager with slight hoppy bitter aftertaste. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

On tap at Flying Saucer. Pours a clear copper with a small frothy off white head leaving sticky lacing along the glass. The aroma is a faint caramel malt. Thin mouthfeel with a bitter malt and light crisp finish. A decent vienna from Karbach.

Pours a golden honey amber with a solid soapy head. Basic macro lager aroma; corn and metallic funk. Nice piney citrus hops bitter taste with some toasty notes as well. Overall, it’s a drinkable brew suitable for the Texas heat. Thanx to BarZigKin for the tasty birthday present!

deyholla (4789) - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA - OCT 29, 2011
On tap at Flying Saucer Houston. Pours a clear light orange with a white head that lasts throughout the beer. Aroma has a decent amount of bead and grain with a slight grass hop note. Flavor has some sweet malts with notes of grass and hay.

Ferris (497) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - MAY 27, 2012
Can - Sweet malt aroma thin disappearing head. Fizzy clear gold. Surprising front end bitterness, with a bit of hay and bread. Flavorful for a lager.

Had a pint at the tour. Its supposed to be the non craft brew guys beer. I guess its sort of lighter than a typical craft brew, but it wasnt the greatest. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Draught. Pours a light amber color with a moderate white head. Nose and taste are much like a lager - a little skunky and boring. Nothing interesting about this beer to me.
