Firestone Lager
Firestone Lager first appeared in 2000, was dropped in 2007 and returned in 2018 with a reworked grain and hop bill. The brewery models it on the Munich Helles: an all-malt lager of German pilsner and North American pale barley, hopped with Hallertau Tradition, Spalter Select and Saphir and not dry-hopped. It pours pale gold and clear. Bready, lightly honeyed grain meets a floral, gently spicy hop note, bitterness stays faint, and the finish is crisp and dry.
