Leinenkugel's Heart of Oak Vienna Lager
The best way to describe the Vienna lager style is to compare it to Samuel Adams Boston Lager, Negra Modelo and Dos Equis. Heart of Oak pours a coppery hue with a three finger tan head. Low IBUs, but there is a bit of a hop bite lurking at the back of the taste profile. Sweet maltiness predominates, with some caramel, and some smokiness, presumably from the oak. I'd say it would be a great Autumn beer, similar in some respects to an Oktoberfest. Works pretty well as an early Spring beer as well.
