Summer may not have arrived yet but it’s close, so you’re gonna need beer. Luckily American craft brewers have got this!

Amber Waves (Atlanta, GA) – New Realm Brewing Co. has a new addition to year-round roster that is  designed for drinkers who seek a flavorful craft experience without the heavy weight of traditional dark beers.

Born and brewed in the Southeast, New Realm Amber Lager is crafted with a meticulous selection of malts that provide a rich, toasted grain character and a hint of caramel sweetness. But despite its deep color and complex flavor, the beer maintains a crisp 4.4% ABV approachability making it a versatile “anytime” beer.

“We wanted to craft a lager brewed with carefully selected malts that deliver a brilliant copper hue and inviting depth of flavor,” said the New Realm brewing team. “Subtle notes of toasted grain and light caramel sweetness lead the way, balanced by a delicate touch of hops. It’s crisp and refreshing with a clean finish.”
