Wiley Roots Local Beer

After centuries of development in and around Belgium, lager beers have arrived in the United States. In addition to standard ale yeasts, lager beers make use of "lager" yeasts like Saccharomyces and Saccharomyces: microorganisms that consume sugars to create uniquely crisp, sometimes enjoyable flavors. Often, heavy doses of rice or corn are added to these beers before they've gone through initial fermentation.

Local Beer is a German Helles brewed the hard way to introduce lagers to the United States. After Anheuser-Busch InBev announced that Wicked Weed was bringing sour beers to the US, we decided that lagers needed to follow. Local Beer is made with pilsner malt, acidulated malt, and Willamette hops. It was brewed for a crisp, refreshing finish that is easy drinking at 4.2% ABV.
