Description

A hazy lager kellerbier, this beer is easy to drink and has a clear malt flavor that’s not overpowering. The CARARED gives it a nice red hue and adds slight toast and caramel flavors. It’s a great beer to pair with food, whether it’s on a warm summer day or a dark winter night. It’s an all-rounder!
