Yadkin River Camp

Yadkin is the name of a river that meanders through a good part of North Carolina. At almost 350 kilometers, it is the longest river in this American state. Its name comes from the Siouan language, but the translation is unknown. Dams regulate the amount of water and are used to generate electricity, but the main benefit of the river lies in its wide range of leisure activities: You can fish and hike along the tree- and bush-lined banks, go swimming in the river or go canoeing.

The New Sarum brewery comes from North Carolina and honors the most magnificent river in its homeland with a beer. Their Yadkin River Lager is a pilsner made with German brewing skills and American ingredients. Some of the ingredients grow right on the brewery's doorstep, such as the grain. The Carolina Malt House variety from the region was used. Combined with corn flakes, barley and a German lager yeast, the result is a crisp pilsner that flows into the glass in a delicate yellow-gold color.

New Sarum's Yadkin River Lager combines a lean body with soft, sweet malt. Spicy, fruity and floral hints of hops balance the grain harmoniously, while the tangy carbon dioxide provides a certain freshness. Good for that little beer craving in between!
