Serene warm-fermented pale lager brings fresh-watered mountainside dewy mist and marble rye sourdough breading to tangy grapefruit-peeled pineapple bittering. Lightly salted dry-hopped spicing tingles raw-honeyed ginger tea backdrop at billowy wheat biscuit bottom. Easygoing sessionable fare ultimately mingles light lagered baked breading with spritzy citric pale ale flare.

BOSS HONEY PALE LAGER
Disgustingly gross sinewy suds (a.k.a. Lubuskie Miodowe) allows slick raw-honeyed astringency and nastily cloy sugared malts to putrify one-dimnesional scum water. In comparison, Hall's Honey Lemon Coughdrop tastes way better.
PERONI BIRRA
Crisply sessionable clear-yellowed light body layers salted lemon zesting atop buttered Italian breading grazing soft barley-maize-rice bed. Brisk carbolic nature from spritzy citrus spicing gains gentle herbal hop musk.
(HIGH FALLS) GOLDMINE LAGER
Slickly glutinous pale-strawed fodder (reticently contract brewed by Genesee's sponsor) promises the goldmine but gives us the shaft. Stale whiskey entry depleted by nasty corn-sugared malt liquoring and oily-hopped diacetyl buttering. Skunky cat urine salting further cheapens ruggedly coarse $2.99 per 6-pack dreck.
CAPITAL SUPPER CLUB LAGER
Truly middle-of-the-road canned pale body merges sour Kolsch fruiting with toasted lager crisping. Tart orange oiling, parched lemondrop-candied pucker and dry cherrywood reminder waver through sedate grassy-hopped prickle as well as distant corn-sugared Vienna malting. Musky sourdough breading envelops honeyed biscuit wheat spine. Tertiary banana, apple and grape illusions need ripening.
SUSQUEHANNA GOLDENCOLD LAGER
On tap at Pocono's Log Cabin Bar, approachable German-styled session beer brings orange-nipped lemon spritz to grassy Hallertau-hopped bittering. Buttery crystal malt base softly underlines citric crispness. In the bottle, thin pilsner-malted German-styled pale lager lacks pizzazz. Astringent raw-honeyed sinew and phenol hop bittering pick up rancid buttery notion. Slurry citric-quince waver buried beneath unfulfilled flavor profile.
ESTRELLA DAMM
On tap at Mason Jar, creamy crystal malt eloquence pervades soft-toned mineral graining and subtle grassy-hopped bittering of soothing moderation. Corn sugared citric easement receives salted buttering. Don't expect as much from lesser red bottled or canned version.
BALASHI CHILL
Crisply light-bodied with minimal grain-toasted hop roast, stable French bread-crusted affinity and salty lemon lime brining. Fizzy phenol astringency kept down. Goes well with cheap snacks on a sweltering sunny afternoon.

ALEXANDER KEITH’S NOVA SCOTIA STYLE LAGER
Perfectly obvious and totally easygoing fresh-watered pale lager now brewed by macro kings, Anheuser-Busch (but originating in Canada), crystallizes its tingly grassy-hopped spicing with wheat-flaked cereal grains and caramelized crystal malts. A slight metallic tinge edges forth by the fragile sweet-buttered finish.

SHINER KOSMOS RESERVE

SARANAC ADIRONDACK LAGER
Slick middle-of-the-road German-styled pale lager seemingly retains English Special Bitter or ‘pub’ ale attributes such as caramelized rye-breaded malting, cellar-like fungi waft and mild woody hop bittering. Withered floral-spiced orange-apricot-grapefruit snip and insufficient pastry-caked spicing (nutmeg-coriander) never approach surface of short-headed amber-hued moderation.
