Thorn Brewing Barrier Lager Review
This beer's best quality is its soft, fluffy texture. The flavor is strikingly similar to a Rolling Rock, with a little more corn-nut flavor and an almost skunked nose. For some reason, this all melds together in a pleasurable way, making it an interesting take on Mexican-style lager — simultaneously, one needn't be too interested to enjoy it.
