Lake Superior Log Slide Lager

Brewed by Lake Superior Brewing at the Dunes Saloon
Style: Pilsener
Grand Marais, Michigan USA

Well, first let me say that this brewery must be among the top ten most scenic in the world, located in Grand Marais on the shores of Lake Superior. Only the drive to Grand Teton Brewing rivals it in my experience. The location IS significant, because I have the feeling that even the basest macroswill would go down smooth in lovely in these environs. Anyway, this particular brew is beautiful in its own right, an astonishing, controlled power of Saaz working through a robust, buttery malt. It looks great, too, a lovely golden sunset color with grand head retention, even from a growler a day from its initial pour. I’ve had so many lackluster brewpub brews recently that finding this very fine one was a joy of joys.
