Vinyl
Magic Hat's site says: "Vinyl Lager is a beer with a deep amber hue, sweet malt taste and a balancing hop touch. The beer is produced using a lager strain of yeastand is fermented at the low end of ale fermentaion temperatures, allowing the beer to maintain its easy-drinking lager-like characteristics.
A lot of readers will say, "Why are you giving a beer rated under 8.0 your Beer of the Month Award?"
The Beerman Sez: Hey, it's spring, the weather sucks here and there hasn't been a great spring beer since Sam Adams discontinued their Kolsch Ale several years ago. It's a decent beer with nice texture. It could use a bit more hops but drinking it reminds The Beerman that summer is coming soon.
Best served with: Whatever you're BBQing in a cold spring drizzle.
