Staves Crispy Boi Lager

First things first: I absolutely cannot drink a beer called Crispy Boi without this song coming to mind, but with "crispy" in the place of "sexy".

With that out of the way, this Czech style lager is a beautiful little thing. The body is super clear with soothing carbonation (and now that you too have Sexy Boy stuck in your head, perhaps you’ll appreciate this scene from 10 Things I Hate About You, and imagine the slow-motion yellow flyers as bubbles rising hypnotically in your beer.) Throw in some Enigma hops to provide a zap of lemon zest and an admirable bitterness that lasts throughout, and you’ve got yourself a sexy, crispy boi.
