My wife who usually enjoys APAs, IPAs and darker beer tasted a lager last night and wanted to know if I could brew something like it. I have not made my own lager recipe before so I would like to hear opinions on what I came across. She wants something similar to Lagunitas Pils for having with pizza. I still have not figured out which lager yeast to use so if anyone knows of a clean lager yeast that would be great.
comments and opinions?
