Butcher Gold
Butcher Gold is a Chicago craft lager from Hop Butcher For The World, a brewery celebrated for its bold, uncompromising approach to every style it tackles. This American lager pours a brilliant, pale straw gold with a crisp, white head that settles to a delicate ring. The aroma is refreshingly clean, offering subtle notes of light grain, a whisper of floral hops, and a faint sweetness reminiscent of fresh dough. On the palate, it is smooth and approachable, with a gentle cereal backbone balanced by soft, understated bitterness. The body is light yet satisfying, making it supremely drinkable. The finish is clean, dry, and refreshingly crisp — a Midwestern take on the everyday lager done with quiet craft and care.
