🌍 United States · American Amber Lager · One of 6 American Amber Lagers in hopIQ

Schell's sessionable dark lager — mahogany in the glass, toasted brown-bread malt in the middle, caramel and a whisper of earthy hop underneath. More character than a light beer, more crushable than most craft. This is Schell's answer to what a working-day dark lager should taste like. Quietly complete.
