Sapwood Cellars – Albura Lager
Style of Beer:
Mexican-style Corn Lager
Riverbend Malt(s) Used:
Cumberland Corn (Corn Malt), Chesapeake Pilsner (2-row Barley Malt), Great Chit (Chit Malt)
Tasting Notes:
Batch #4 of Albura Lager is the first batch #madewithRiverbend malt after a recent maltster switch. The result is a little rounder and smoother than the previous batch. The malt combination is crisp, clean, with a rich slightly sweet corn flavor. While it doesn’t need a lime wedge, we think adding one makes it even better!
When/Where Available:
Every Sunday this fall, get a $4 14 oz Albura Lager with any taco platter at Sapwood Cellars. They'll have the usual 25% off draft happy hour from 5-7 PM if you stick around too!
