This is a decent beer. Full one pint pours. It is not India Pale Ale hoppy,
but less and tastefully hopped. More hoppy than malty. From their site.
Target, Nelson Sauvin, Liberty, Cascade not a bad mix. Malt bill
Pale, Munich, C-80. My thumbs are up. Glad I found some and procured it…
I was not a fan, but I’ve only had it once so far.
Too much “dirty” hop character for my tastes.
A decent beer, but I am tired of New Belgium using Nelson Sauvin hops in a beer that you can never taste them in. First Dig, now Shift. What a waste!
I’ll keep an eye out for this one. I think I saw at at a local store. Nice color.
It’s interesting, but honestly, if you’ve had “dig” you’ve had this. I’m not that fond of it. I mean I’ll finish the four pack, but I won’t buy it again.
NB is very hit or miss for me, with more misses than hits. This one is pretty much an earthy, pungent miss that reminds me heavily of dig.
Interesting, I really disliked dig, but have kind of fallen in love with shift. Great hop flavor/aroma, but nice sessionable strength. Goes down crisp and clean.
Wow, I’ve haven’t seen that one yet. Wonder if it’s available in CT?
No New Belgium beers are avail in CT.
Take the metra down to the city, they had some distribution there.
Not a fan.
I liked it. Iliked the fact that they avoided pilsner malt altogether, made for a more rounded flavor. Probably one of my favorite light lagers.
I just had it last night (a friend brought me a couple cans from the States). I liked it. Works well with tacos.
Got a couple more 4 packs…seems to agree with me…specially good /cold/ on a hot
thirsty summer day.
+1, this was my impression as well.
I thought it was pretty decent, but agree that it is far from New Belgium’s best effort. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I saw “Pale Lager,” but it basically explains it in the name. Not overly hoppy, and fairly crisp. I got one at a bar to try it and don’t think I’d pick it up in the store. I’m hoping they do “Snow Day” again this year.
