Rainier
Rainier is a Pacific Northwest brand, brewed since 1878 in Seattle. Today it is an American adjunct lager in the classic mould. It pours a clear, pale gold under a fine white head. The nose is soft and grainy, with a light corn note and a whisper of malt sweetness; the palate is light-bodied and lively, with a delicate cereal character, only a mild hop touch and a clean, moderately dry finish that keeps the beer refreshing and easy on the palate.
