Worthy Brewing Tenmile Dry Hopped Lager

My latest article for The Bulletin came out last week, in which I examine Worthy Brewing‘s new(ish) Tenmile Dry Hopped Lager in detail.

“Honestly, we had had so much fun working on Sol Power Pils that we wanted to design a beer that would be just as crushable yet see how the Strata hop performed at a lower dry hopping rate than our IPA,” he wrote via email.

“The original idea actually came about when we were brainstorming what our 2019 (Oregon Brewers Festival) beer was going to be. We had a few kegs left from the batch made for the Brewers Fest and they received a ton of positive feedback from our pub patrons.”

The base of the lager is a classic German pilsner malt, which contributes biscuit, toffee, and honey like flavors while fermenting light and clean. Strata’s signature contributions are aromas of tropical fruits such as mango, passion fruit, and fresh strawberry, as well as a spicy, herbal cannabis character.

Read the article for my review of the beer, though a quick spoiler: It’s good.
