I have tried Voss, and get tangerine.
I have tried Lutra and get pear/white grape
I have neither time nor equipment for storing something for months at 30F.

And everyone is different

@Panderson1 I would be curious if you get pear/white grape tho.


Yes! There were notes of grape definitely. But pretty clean. I was thinking it was a little young and that would go away. We shall see.
 
Wow this thread blew up. Sorry if i offended some of you (not really lol). I wasn't calling this beer a lager. I said "lager it" as in age it cold for a while....

I always thought to lager meant to age cold for a while. Is it not possible to lager an ale?
This thread is somewhat of an oxymoron. Yes, you can lager an ale and you are correct in the usage of that word in that sense. But your thread title is “Munich Helles w Lutra Kveik… 72f”. Munich Helles can’t be made with an ale yeast.
Definitely doesn't taste like a traditional Munich Helles. Definitely like a blond ale.
It won’t taste like a “traditional Munich Helles”, because although the grain and hops may have been appropriate for a Helles, Kveik yeast certainly isn’t.
 
I'll just add that the verb Lager and the noun Lager are not equivalent. The best (noun) Lagers have been (verb) Lagered, but there is a more to a (noun) Lager than cold storage.

Sidenote -- my favorite story of my American study of German, 2 years in college; at the end of the final exam where we answered essay questions on Brecht and Kafka stories :eek:, as the professor collected the papers, said to us, "congratulations, now you know enough vocabulary to converse with a 4 year old German child".

German is really not easy. My girlfriend is from another country and learning the language, quite advanced already, but every time she asks me about something I realise how little reliable rules there in the German language. Basically everything is an exception from the rules :D

But Polish..... Man Polish makes German look like a four year old.

And English makes German look like child's play. Next to calculus, my most frustrating two semesters in college were spent studying German. That said, I really never understood English until I studied German. I did have two valuable takeaways from my studies that helped me immensely in adult life when traveling there:

"Ich hätte gern ein Bier." and "Wo ist die Toilette?"

Calculus, on the other hand, not so much!
 
Donde Esta el banyo and Mas cervesa porfavor. It is a Mexican lager. LOL :mug:
