This Pre-Prohibition Lager homebrew recipe draws from the pre-prohibition era in US brewing history and features our Europils Malt and Flaked Maize to lend grainy and sweet-corn flavours respectively. Substantial hop additions give a moderate bitterness and the low mash temperature gives a lingering dry finish.
