Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold (ABV 5.8%) is complex and satisfying; a smooth, golden lager that strikes a delicate balance between malt and hops in the aroma, palate, finish and body. It has more body and less hops than a Pilsner, and less malt and more hops than a Munich style lager; brewed in the style developed by the 19th century brewers of Dortmund, Germany. Six 12 oz bottles.
