Starr Hill Jomo Lager
Beer-a-Day #148
Pretty amber color with a little chill haze. Grass and honey in the aroma. Nicely balanced. I like this one, too.
I think Starr Hill may be my find of the year.
No trackbacks yet.

Perfectly balanced, this authentic version of a German helles-style lager satisfies gloriously. Lean, German malts and fine European hops offer subtle harmony.
Pale straw; white head. Odor is light with a bit of grain. Taste is light with some floral essence. A good session beer.

Our classic German lager has a perfect balance of caramel malt sweetness. Look for a rich, amber color and medium body.
Pale amber with an off-white head; small bubbles. Slight earthy and peppery aroma. A little toastiness in the taste.

Rich and malty, Festie is available in September and October, and is our tribute to the great German lager. Its name invokes the German tradition of Oktoberfest, while also paying homage to the end of the summer music festival season.
I’m really beginning to like what I’ve been having from Starr Hill. After having never [...]

Tennent’s Lager, [sic] has a distinctive, crisp and satisfying flavor with a fresh, bright appearance. Made entirely from natural ingredients, including the finest Scottish barley & the purest [...]

This light pilsner has the taste signature of a Beck’s, with a calorie count that’s as refreshing as the beer itself. You’ll find a crisp, light experience that lives up to the Beck’s name and reputation in every bottle. It’s taste you can count on, even if you’re not counting calories.
Oh my goodness, what [...]

Don’t let the deep copper color fool you. This isn’t the dark ale you’d expect. This is a special bottom-fermented lager that lives up to Beck’s quality standards. It gets it color from a unique roasting of the barley malt. It refreshes like the true lager beer it is.
And its rich, smooth taste with a [...]

Beer-a-Day #207
Michelob used to be the upscale brand in the Anheuser-Busch stable. No yelling former athletes, no snarky comedians, no scantilly-clad women. I do recall one commercial featured Eric Clapton doing a redone version of “After Midnight“. Then it seemed to be mostly neglected, with A-B tinkering with the formula, only restoring Michelob to an [...]

Starr Hill Pale Ale is another award-winning, medium-bodied, year-round favorite. Creating a fresh spin on the English Pale Ale tradition, Master Brewer Mark Thompson uses liberal hopping and Munich malt to create a crisp, aromatic blend with a bit of bite. This brew has a higher alcohol content to balance its body and bitterness.
Medium [...]

I’ve only recently discovered this Virginia brewer, and my retailer had a bunch more styles in. IPA is probably my favorite style.
Northern Lights is an extra-special India Pale Ale that is available from January through April. Characterized by its full-flavored bitterness and floral aroma, a perfect blend of barley and hops make this a [...]
