Grand Lager

in #beersaturday4 years ago

I drink a lot of fancy beer with crazy flavor combinations. Sometimes you have to go back to the simpler beers. That was the goal with the Grand Lager by Brewery Vivant.

This is a crisp all malt lager. Think your traditional beer that’s clean, crisp and light.

It’s a beautiful lager. It’s crystal clear with a light yellow to almost amber color. It is slightly darker than a Bud Light or Miller.

The aroma is also more complex than these macro beers. It smells like beer with slightly bitter notes, heavy bread and malt characteristics. Being a lager it’s got a fair amount of carbonation which helps create an aromatic bouquet.

The flavor is artistically simple. Light hop and malt notes throughout the drinking experience. There’s a slight sweetness, but that’s about it. This is something that you could chug. I’m going to keep comparing it to macro beers. It’s a better locally sourced version of those.

The mouthfeel it light, bubbly and refreshing. I’m a fan of a lager on hot day. With a lower 4.5% ABV it’s more refreshing that drunk inducing. This kind of beer has its place. I’m not going say it’s better than a more complex beer because I like beers packed with flavor. However this beer has its time and place.

Nice review. I might have to see if I can find this one sometime. I found myself drinking Devil's Lettuce last night and it wasn't too bad. For an IPA that is. I could actually have a couple of them and not regret it!

I saw that! I'm glad you found a tolerable IPa. Shorts is a good brewery. If you liked that beer I’d steer towards IPLs.

Okay, I will have to look for those. I really wanted to try the light hearted sometime.

I think you would really like to. It’s like 80% lager and 20% IPA. You get a punch of flavor then it mellows into a clean crisp traditional lager taste.

I agree, !BEER should not be to complex, I love a good hoppy taste, but it must be thirst quenching and drinkable!!

Every beer has its time and place.

another perfect pint, man!
