(not yet rated)
Beer Style: American-Style Light Lager
Recipe Type: partial mash
Yield: 5 gallons
Description:
Lime-Lite Lager is crafted to deliver a crisp, refreshing gluten-free lager with a gentle lime accent and a clean, dry finish. It’s an easy-to-brew, extract-based recipe designed for a light-bodied, highly drinkable beer that’s especially enjoyable in warm weather. Fermented using a hybrid ale/lager yeast that performs well at standard ale temperatures while still producing a clean, lager-like character without the need for precise cold fermentation control. For those wanting a more traditional lager expression, a true lager yeast can be used with cold fermentation to achieve a classic, fully authentic profile.
