Description
Indian Summer is a light profile American-style wheat ale spiced with Orange
Peel and Coriander. Our recipe uses a mix of wheat and pale barley. This beer is
very lightly hopped to allow the spices to shine through. Clean fermenting yeast
produce a very dry, crisp base to further accentuate the spices. The aroma has a
distinct citrus note without being overly fruity.
The Story Behind Indian Summer
The Indian Summer recipe was created in an effort to suit the palate of Deep
South beer drinkers who often look for light-profile beers with a minimal caloric
makeup. Indian Summer was first introduced as a seasonal offering. Due to its
popularity and brisk sales in available markets, the Lazy Magnolia team decided to
make this recipe year-round. It has quickly gained a loyal following and serves as
a great introductory beer to the world of craft brewing.
