Ballast Point Longfin Lager

This 4.5% ABV helles lager is from the Ballast Point Brewing Company of San Diego, California. 

The beer pours a pale, washed out golden yellow in color. There is a tall head of white foam. The aroma is straw, golden grain, grassy, with that classic German-style lager musky funk. The taste follows the aromas directly, hitting all the same notes. It is moderately bitter, crisp and refreshing. If you are a lager fan, definitely give this one a try, it is a classic in the German tradition.
