La Crosse Amber Lager

This is a relatively new "Session Series" offering from the City Brewery of La Crosse, Wisconsin. They do a large amount of contract brewing, and brew some really nasty beers. 

The beer pours a dark amber to copper in color with over an inch of thick off-white foam. The aroma is malty, light caramel, a bit tangy. The taste is also malty, caramel, roasted and toasted, with a light fruitiness on the end, and a grassy, lightly bitter finish. It is light to medium bodied with a crisp and refreshing carbonation. This isn’t going to win any major flavor awards, but it is very drinkable, and a pretty good product for City. I would drink it again.
