553. West Sixth Brewing (Louisville, KY) - Cerveza

“Our take on a light Mexican lager is crisp with a pleasant cracker like malt character with notes of corn and a low amount of hops to create a quenching and sessionable lager.”

Tried this at the Guaca Mole restaurant where we stopped for lunch in Louisville this past Sunday, on the way to Mammoth Cave. Almost passed, but then double-checked the minuscule tap list and realized that I didn’t recognize this brewery. It’s very similar to the El Gato from Centerpoint that I tried recently, though the hint of corn or tortilla chip is perhaps slightly less pronounced. Not sure this one had an echo of anything else in it at all, whereas El Gato may have a little bit of citrus there on the back end. Not bad, and certainly sessionable at 4.6% ABV; but again, not something that I feel like I want to pay craft beer prices for.
