Green Coast Lager

Tap to rate

Green Coast Lager goes back to the pale lager the brewery opened with and has carried its current name since 2015. It is brewed with the noble hop varieties Tettnanger, Spalt and Hersbrucker and left unfiltered, so it keeps a natural yeast haze. The hops give a spicy, herbal character and a low, clean bitterness, the yeast adds light fruity esters. The malt side shows bread and a little honey, the finish is soft and clean. It is currently found mostly on tap.
