Dan opens Layover Lager, an American Pale Lager from Destination Unknown Brewing Company, as his fifth beer from the NYS Craft Beer Box.

Destination Unknown Beer Company Layover Lager

STYLE: American Pale LagerABV: 5.4%IBU: 0AVAILABILITY: 16-Ounce cans, DraftStats above taken from the brewery’s can and Untappd.

Appearance

Light gold in color with a tight-bubbled head and a little chill haze right from the fridge.

Aroma

Behind the malt bill, lemon and key lime zest mixed with herbality.

Taste

Lemon/lime continues with an herbal quality almost like a mix of basil, tarragon, and thyme with a grainy note from the malt in the middle of the palate.

Mouthfeel

Pretty good body and carbonation for a lighter lager.

Overall

Lots of food options, but I wanted to baste some fish or light fowl packed with lots of herbs. Thai chili wings also came to mind, but it would be pretty easy to have a few.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
