This brew is Mill Street heralding Hogtown’s home town heroes. A Blue Wave for the Blue Jays, World Series back to back champs 1992 and 1993, seems like only yesterday.* Maybe this year they can return to their former glory? I had a pre-season game on the tube so thought this Lager would be the right brew to “catch” the game with.
At the ballpark you get hungry, so you order one of them ballpark franks, those extra big hot dogs with all the fixins. Perfect feed for a ball game, I guess that’s why they call them ball park franks. Then they bring you a burger! You like burgers, no problem, but you expected a hot dog. The burger is good enough, but where is your ballpark frank?
Where am I going with this? Well, I am watching the ball game and expecting a lager. This brew pours lemonade yellow, hazy as an apparition, with a new baseball white head. It has a fruit forward aroma, I check the label, yes it does say lager. First swig is a slightly hoppy fruity taste, no bite or bitter, I think I got a session IPA. I check the label, it still says lager. It was hard to find any lager in this beer, in fact I didn’t find any. What I did experience was a nice mild session IPA. Good beer, no doubt about it, but where is my ballpark frank?
I am calling it a lager because Mill St. does, but it is really a session IPA.
