Beer-a-Day #232
Blue Point Brewing’s award-winning Toasted Lager is our flagship product. Copper in color this brew is made from six different malts including: English Pale, Crystal, Munich, Carapils, Wheat and Belgian Caravienna. Toasted Lager displays a balanced flavor of malt and hop which makes for easy drinking. Special lager yeast is used to produce that long lasting, smooth finish. The “toasted” part of the name refers to our direct-fire brew kettle’s hot flames that impart a toasted flavor to our most popular microbrew.
Caramel in color with a lovely off-white head. Aroma is light. Definitely a lager, but has more complexity and weight than one would expect from such. It’s good.
BPBC’s Toasted Lager is my go-to summer beer. Ever since my local store ran out of their Blueberry ale (also a fave), I’ve been picking this up for outdoor imbibing. I use it in my cooking and in my BBQ recipes.
I’m a fan of “lighter bodied” but fully flavored American lagers and Toasted Lager definitely fits the bill.
