Almost any beer pairs well with fishing. With fish, not so much.
Bobber Missouri Lager from Logboat Brewing Company in Columbia would be a good option for both, particularly on a warm afternoon.
It’s not an enigmatic, contemplative beer. Malty, though not overtly sweet, with just a whisper of bitterness from noble hops, Bobber is instead a mellow presence
Logboat’s brewmaster, Josh Rein, has said he wanted to present a beer that tasted like, well, beer. So there is a wealth of malted grain, with notions of crusty bread, summer hay and a gentle dusting of toasted spice that settles into a faintly resinous finish.
Like most lagers, it comes across as clean and easy drinking. Golden straw in color with a cloudy white head.
This is a beer that would pair nicely with fried catfish or any flaky white fish, for that matter. Yet there is more. Bobber has fruity and floral tones – hints of pear and stone fruits, waving grasses and summer flowers that drift throughout.
This is beer that tastes like beer, but it is not simple.
