Yacht Lager Review

Stillwater Artisanal
Stratford, Connecticut


Dry-hopped session lager
4.2% abv
4 pack

Appearance: clear golden yellow body with plenty of bubbles racing to the top; pure white head (easy 2 finger) and it has good retention and leaves plenty of lacing on the glass


Aroma: surprisingly aromatic; must be truly ‘dry-hopped’, nice hint hops on the nose, a little citrus twist, soda cracker,

Flavors and Mouthfeel: wow, a nice tasting lager; some typical lager notes like white bread and yeast BUT also some nice hoppy notes – lemon peel with a little floral tea in the mix; nice zippy mouthfeel coming from the carbonation – the carbonation does fall off by the time I am halfway thru the glass


To the Point: a very pleasing lager; I would buy this again
