Our 18th Star Bière de Garde is made with pilsner and wheat malts as well as oats. This will give the beer a light color, but it will still be full-bodied and strong. It will also give the beer a cloudy appearance. It is hopped with German Perle hops and spiced with lemon peels. This will impart a slightly citric flavor and aroma. This blends well with the natural flavors from the yeast but are not overpowering. The flavors become subdued and more balanced during the three-month aging process.
