Korean Rice Lager

While beer in Europe is always brewed with grains such as barley, wheat, oats or rye, people in the Far East like to turn to other grains: in many Asian countries, beer with rice has a long tradition Alcoholic beverages were made from rice thousands of years ago, and the brewery Dokkaebier from Oakland specializes in Korean-Californian fusion.

The Dokkaebier brewery from Oakland specializes in Korean-Californian fusion and, in addition to brews with galangal, exotic citrus fruits, tea and lemongrass, naturally also has one with rice in its range Its Korean Rice Lager is clothed in a clever design that could be either a string of rice grains or an endless ear of grain The brew combines rice with barley malt and is hopped with Hüll Melon, Callista and Herkules varieties

The delicately cloudy, pale golden lager smells of just-picked hop cones and tropical fruit The first sip reveals a refreshing beer with sparkling carbonation, a pleasant 5.1% alcohol content and a fruity character Notes of juicy honeydew melon, ripe kiwi and green pear provide a mild sweetness that perfectly matches the elegant freshness of the brew
