This produces more complex and flavorful beers. Craft Ales: Redhook Ale, Fat Tire, Firestone Double Barrel Ale, Humbolt Hemp Ale, Stone Pale Ale, Arrogant Bastard Ale

Unlike most American lagers, that use rice or corn adjuncts to produce a cleaner finish. European Lagers: Stella Artois, Beck's, Beck's Oktoberfest
