1.B - Standard American Lager (BJCP 2008)


Description

Very refreshing and thirst quenching. An international style including the standard mass-market lager from most countries. Strong flavors are a fault.


Profile

Aroma: Little to no malt aroma, although it can be grainy, sweet or corn-like if present. Hop aroma may range from none to a light, spicy or floral hop presence. Low levels of yeast character (green apples, DMS, or fruitiness) are optional but acceptable. No diacetyl.
Appearance: Very pale straw to medium yellow color. White, frothy head seldom persists. Very clear.
Flavor: Crisp and dry flavor with some low levels of grainy or corn-like sweetness. Hop flavor ranges from none to low levels. Hop bitterness at low to medium-low level. Balance may vary from slightly malty to slightly bitter, but is relatively close to even. High levels of carbonation may provide a slight acidity or dry


Ingredients

Two- or six-row barley with high percentage (up to 40%) of rice or corn as adjuncts.
