Legacy Brewing Fat Boy Lager
Beer-a-Day #52
This is the third (and final, for now) beer from Legacy Brewing.
Light amber with some orange highlights. Off-white head without much lacing. Toast and grass in the aroma, but otherwise “clean”, if I can use that cliché. Sweeter than I expected, but not overly so. This is interesting. Needs more research.

Beer-a-Day #323 This dog enjoys his days in the sun… Old Scratch Amber Lager is a malty, mellow beer that is fermented at medium temperatures to develop both ale and lager characteristics. “Gold Scratch” raises the standard in the amber lager category.

Beer-a-Day #218 Nice deep amber color with a finger’s-width of head. Aroma has a bit of caramel and lemon candy. Medium body, with a bit of roastiness. I like it.

Beer-a-Day #69 This begins a new six-pack of beers from a single brewer. This time I’m doing Abita Beer. First up is Abita Amber. Medium amber (duh!) in color, a healthy ivory colored head. Malty aroma with a bit of peanuttiness. Body is heavier than I expected and quite malty. Abita Amber submit_url = ‘http://hop-talk.com/2009/03/10/abita-amber/’;

Beer-a-Day #51 This is the second beer from Legacy Brewing I picked up recently. Never heard of them before this. Medium-deep amber color with orange highlights. Head dissipates quickly. Almost a maple syrup aroma. Burnt caramel in the flavor, and not as much hops as I expected based on the description on the website. submit_url

Beer-a-Day #50 Legacy Brewing Company is based out of Reading, Pennsylvania, but this was contract brewed in Harrisburg. I’ve never heard of them. But, they’re pretty local and I’m all about finding new beers to try. This is the first of several of theirs I purchased recently. I’m not a huge fan of wheat beers,
