A Note on This Beer

I don’t always drink Lagers. But when I do, I reach for the most interesting one I can find. 

And right now, I’m reaching for Steward of Elements.

The award-winning* brewers at Elder Pine craft this unique, limited-release Pale Lagerbier using spelt malts — one of the most ancient brewing grains in use since the time of the Sumerians. 

Then, they transport Steward of Elements to 2020 by dry-hopping it with a brand-new hop variety known as Experimental Hop #07270.

The spelt malt lends a smooth backbone and nutty flavors with a pinch of tangy nuance, setting the stage for Experimental Hop #07270. The hops then offer an intriguing, potent mix of dank, resinous flavors with a noticeably spicy profile, rounded off by a hint of tangerines. 

For Untappd fans like @Ricki who got a taste, it’s a case where “Breweries like Elder Pine are rewarding me for branching away from my typical beer styles!”

‘Cause Steward of Elements is a thirst-quenching, uniquely hopped brew that’s a bold new look for Lagers. 

So do yourself a favor and grab a stash — with this crisp crusher, every sip is more interesting than the last.

Rated 4.02 on Untappd!

*USA Today named Elder Pine one of the 10 Best New Breweries of 2020; Silver medal-winners at 2019 Maryland Craft Beer Competition

I don’t often drink lagers, but when I do... this probably won’t be on the shortlist.

Solid lager! Crisp and sweet. A little bready fruit and some spiciness. Nicely balanced with some body. Fitting beer for an exhausting, sweaty summer day.

Clean, crisp. The hops come through with a subtle pale ale quality at times. Not a favorite but it’s drinkable.

I can't nail down the malt flavor, since it's spelt malt. It's listed as "experimental hops," but it largely just tastes like Tettnang. It smells like... unbaked flour and spearmint. A mild meyers lemon catches the front of your tongue as a bakery assaults the back of your nose, but with spearmint cookies holiday cookies lie in the oven, albiet next to a volcano. It finishes like a walk in woods, with your back against an old log as you take in one last look at the canopy.

An elegant, balanced lager with a soft mouthfeel from the spelt. The hops doesn’t overwhelm – it gives just the right touch for the gentle maltiness. A beautiful beer.
