Beer of the Week

The beer: Karasu

Brewed by: Abnormal Beer Company, San Diego, California

Description (from the website): "We teamed up with the Masters of Lager, Eppig Brewing, to create this Japanese inspired Schwarzbier. Utilizing rice and a specific yeast strain along with Columbus, Nugget, Northern Brewer and Saaz hops, we created this dark lager that is crisp yet offers a depth of flavor."

Would I buy it again?: This is the second lager with rice I've had in the past month, and while I did like this one, I preferred the one from Troegs. The Karasu is just a little too bitter, in my opinion. Not in a way that completely ruins it, but it does prevent the beer from being something I'd pursue again.
