The Vienna Lager was first originated by Anton Dreher in Vienna in 1841, this beer style is defined by the toasty character of the Vienna Malt. This lager recipe is light in body and dry in finish making it a very drinkable brew. The Perle and Styrian hops give a soft, delicate bitterness in perfect balance to the malt.
