ALEXANDRIA, Va. — On Friday Jan. 18, Port City Brewing Company debuts Golden Export Lager, the newest entry in its popular Rotating Lager Series. Based on the blonde export lagers invented in late-19th century Germany, Golden Export Lager balances a subtly sweet, toasty malt character with spicy, floral hops. Slightly stronger than the related Helles and Pilsner styles, Golden Export still aims to refresh.
“Golden Export Lager is the perfect beer to kick off the new year,” says founder Bill Butcher. “At 5.8 percent ABV, it’s a bit bigger than our average lager but remains balanced and thirst-quenching.”
Port City will celebrate the debut of Golden Export Lager with a release party at the brewery on Friday, Jan. 18.
