A light and easy drinking lager inspired by the small Arkansas village where I was reared. A settlement of German, Swiss, and Polish coal mining immigrants Altus had a population of 418 back in the '80s. Being on the edge of a wet county, next to a dry county and home to 4 wineries and multiple other places to purchase alcoholic beverages. We loved our wine in Altus, but when taking a break from the grape, we chugged a light lager. The use of Talus hops has simply to do with the name; if you transpose the first two letters and you'll know.
Brewer's Notes: the mix of 2-row base malts is what I had on hand; will likely just use 6 lbs. of one type/brand in future brews If not using the WLP830 German Lager yeast, I will likely use Imperial G03 Dieter (Koln) Ale yeast fermented on the cool side of the recommended range and lagered
