This isn’t an official style, but the magic of being a homebrewer is doing whatever you want to make great beer that you love at home.
After brewing the American Lite Lager that used rice solids, I wanted something that was still light and refreshing but had an experimental homebrew character. I really enjoying the ease of making modern lagers with the new type of lager yeast available and NovaLager has risen to the top of my go to lager yeasts.
This beer is simple a blend of two base malts and a touch of aromatic malt. The only hop used was Willamette. I used Willamette because I want something that is similar to Noble hops but aligns to American homebrewing beer recipes.
I also wanted to avoid more popular fruit forward hops so as to not to begin to confuse this beer with an IPL, Cold IPA or whatever light malt lager with extra hops is these days.
Voilà! – my American Homebrew Lager is born! Maybe it’s not all that new but is something tasty. Cheers!
