This week's Sunday Night Suds looks at a beer from one of the newest breweries to go kosher - Full Sail Session Lager.
I first read about this beer being certified kosher on the CRC kosher liquor list, but since the certification was by Oregon Kosher, I figured that much like the beers produced by Leikam Brewery, there was no way that I was going to see these on the East Coast...until I stumbled across this beer in teh singles aisle at the local Total Wine in Westbury, NY. So I grabbed it (along with some other singles I had not seen before).
The beer poured the typical dark golden color of a lager and it had decent carbonation. The first taste was all malt and each successive taste was pure, crisp malt. Mrs KB liked this beer and I guess for a lager it was pretty decent, but since I had this on its own while giving daf tonight, I was left wanting more of a developed flavor than this one note lager.
The beer is 5.1% abv, which is about average for a lager, so if you are looking for something that is not excessively bitter, this would be a good choice.
As discussed above, the Full Sail Session Lager is certified kosher by Oregon Kosher, but there is no kashrus symbol on the bottle. Additionally, since I bought this as a loose single, I don't know if there is a certification mark on the case/holder that it came in.

As always, please remember to drink responsibly and to never waste good beer unless there is no designated driver.
