A classic Mexican Lager! Our Mode Yellow is based on a similarly-sounding Mexican lager known all over the world. Easy to drink, the base is augmented with flaked maize and Vienna malt, with classic Hallertau hops for bitterness and aroma. This has a nice malt character and hoppiness, but still is light, refreshing, and super easy to drink! You can make this beer using a traditional lager yeast and ferment using a traditional lager fermentation schedule, or use Lutra Kveik yeast, which creates a clean and lager-like beer even at ale temperatures (and higher!) No matter what you do, be sure to enjoy this tasty beer! We recommend a lime wedge for a bit of lime flavor and acidity, and pairing this beer with tacos!
