🌍 United States · Golden Lager · One of 1 Golden Lagers in hopIQ

Devils Backbone's year-round golden lager — bright straw, honey-tinged Vienna-malt sweetness, clean noble-hop finish. Fuller than a Vienna Lager but lighter than the O'Fest. The Virginia summer beer that carries into fall without breaking a sweat. AB InBev-owned, brewed with the same recipe respect the pre-acquisition years had.
