Dry clear yellowed suds. Mild Scotch-licked pale malting, musky lemon-snipped Saaz hop herbage and rustic maize acridity dirtied up by putrid cabbage waft.

JERSEY CYCLONE WAVES OF TIME LAGER
Dry puffy white-headed golden-bodied moderation retains crisp barley roast, light perfumed spicing and gluey starching. Pleasantly sweet summertime lager.
INDUSTRIAL ARTS ANY BEER
On tap at Growler & Gill, easygoing 'classic' dry lager with spritzy Citra-Cascade-hopped lemon fizz reaches honeyed cereal graining and flaked corn crisping. Briskly sessionable.
HEAVY REEL ISLAND BEACH LAGER
On tap at Kitchen & Beer Bar, crisply dry aluminum cleared flagship lager bests less efficient competition. Soft-toned creamy froth gives way to salty corn-dried barley husk, kolsch-like champagne sparkle, grassy Hallertau hop herbage and murky floral daubs above delicate honeyed biscuit base.
BIRDSMOUTH MEXICAN LAGER
On tap at Taphouse 15, dry Mexican-styled lager from Jersey. Dry brown tea musk guards wavered rye-dried caraway, waddleseed and fennel caress and dewy brown leaf moisture as spritzy lemon spicing fades quick and sweet agave snips barely register above gluey cardboard Vienna malting.
YARDS PHILLY STANDARD
Sessionable "no nonsense" golden straw cleared dry lager with corn-flaked cereal graining reaching honeyed dough bottom as salty lemon-spiced herbage stays relegated.
ALLAGASH SECONDS TO SUMMER
On tap at Ambulance, limited soft-toned summer '23 moderation deemed a 'slightly hoppy' Czech lager retains murky yellow fruiting and musky Saaz-hopped pilsner malting. Bottom-fermenting Belgian lager yeast awakens citric phenol hop esters.
MUKONA HONEY LAGER
Clover-honeyed Uke lager relies on malt liquorish corn sugaring, molasses breaded treacle and sticky wheat gluten to create idiosyncratic mix. Mild grassy hop astringency provides mild bittering.
EBBS LAGER NO. 1
Brusque German lager with grain breaded pilsner malting anchoring lemon-dried grapefruit tartness, hay-like straw wheat astringency and raw-honeyed floral herbage. Mannered, simple and underwhelmingly satisfying.
SINGLECUT FREQUENCY RUSTIC LAGER
On tap at Kitchen & Beer Bar, 'nuanced, classic and simple' German-styled lager brings musky lemon souring, grassy Noble hop herbage and mild floral spicing to fresh-baked French breading. Raw grained rusticity emboldens its bottom end.
ORION THE DRAFT
Quintessential semi-dry Okinawan lager maintains richer rice-grained thrust than most lighter bodied canned/bottled Jap draughts. Lemony floral-spiced orange peel whim and sourdough restraint also separate Orion's lager from Asahi-Sapporo-Kirin competitors, but corn-dried pilsner malting countering muted hop musk beneath the surface will appeal to less discriminating mainstreamers.
KOSHIHIKARI ECHIGO BEER
Clean gold-cleared rice lager (circa 2022) with zesty lemon spritz flinging thru pilsner-malted toasted French bread spine depleted somewhat by cardboard base that disrupts pasty rice sweetness.
