Dan will be mixing in brews from his recent trip to MA (first one since early March 2020), and leads off with Brockton Beer Frederick & Main.

STYLE: American Light Lager
ABV: 4.0%
IBU: N/A
AVAILABILITY: 16 oz. cans (Year-Round)

Stats above taken from the brewery’s can and website.

Beautiful, clear, straw yellow in color, with a fluffy, white head.

Graininess leads off, and there is that reminiscent sweetness typical in the style, perhaps from a flaked corn addition?

Grain continues on the palate and is true to style a lighter malt profile.

Crisp, light, refreshing, moderately dry with a smooth mouthfeel and pleasant carbonation.

This is no doubt a great “lead-off beer”, to drink while you’re deciding your progression and/or food order. I was definitely feeling typical bar food for this one. I had a great albeit shorter visit to Brockton than I would have liked, and I recommend you check them out, as I found their space inviting, clean, and definitely focused as being a support in the local community.

Cheers and remember:

Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.

All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.
