Beau's Lite

Tap to rate

Beau's Lite is a light lager brewed from four ingredients — barley, wheat, hops and water — and cold-aged for four weeks. It pours a pale straw gold with a soft white head. Barley and wheat give a mild cereal malt character, while German Huell Melon hops add delicate floral and fruity aromas. The body is smooth and lean with medium carbonation, and the finish is dry and crisp. The beer was previously sold as Lug Lite.

◐ Taste

Entry is light and crisp, with a clean malt base that suggests toasted grain without heaviness. The mid-palate remains smooth and balanced, with mild bitterness (8 IBU) providing just enough definition to prevent flatness. A dry, refreshing character dominates, leaving no cloying sweetness behind.
