The world of craft beer is always shifting but despite new styles, variations of those styles and ingredients appearing at a rate of knots, old favourites often enjoy mini-Renaissances too. Lagers are such a style, with craft breweries re-focusing on them with a vengeance in recent times as they look to Europe for bright, balanced beers.
Jetty Road’s Honest Lager is such a beer, designed to satisfy anyone who walks into their brewpub and says “I’d just like a good, honest lager thanks”. During its inspiration from Germany, the beer's focus is squarely on refreshment, with a clean and lean malt body that brings notes of dry crackers and bready, while hops provide a herbal and floral touch and light yeast esters gently sneak out before a crisp soft bitterness kicks in.
