Gold Star Dark Lager

This 4.9% ABV kosher beer is from Tempo Beverages of Netanya, Israel. The beer pours a clear and light brown, the color of cream soda. There is a short off-white head. The aroma is light maltiness, caramel, dark sugar, a bit of a tang. The taste follows the malty aromas directly, but there is enough hops to finish dry rather than sweet. There is a nice tingling carbonation in the mouth. Solidly average.
