Accurate to style, historically this type of ale was brewed to compete with the fast growth of the American Lager style. The addition of corn as an adjunct dates back to early America, when malted barley was hard to come by. This recipe uses a flaked maize and pale malt blend with a light Cluster hop for bitterness to create an easy drinking and thirst quenching lawnmower beer. Note: this style would easily double as a great dock beer!
