Beers similar to Spitfire Lager

Pale Lager·United Kingdom·4% ABV·One of 346 Pale Lagers in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Spitfire Lager's malty and bitter character. Vanilla rises in the aroma, the hopping stays light, and the result is clean and crisp in a bright gold glass. Brown malt joins lager malt in the blend. Challenger and Target, both English hops, set the bitterness at a gentle 14 IBU, so this lager from a Kentish ale brewery speaks with English hops rather than continental ones. Spitfire Lager (4.0%, draught) joins the amber and golden ales in the Spitfire family.
