So, what’s a yard beer? Put simply, American-style lagers, ones that are great to drink in our midwestern-sized yards.

Here are the crucial questions Tap List beer enthusiast Cassie Niemeyer asks before judging yard beers: Is it crushable? Is it satisfying after a hard day’s work? Does it taste like an American lager should?

The Tap List:
Double Shift Brewing Co.’s Yard Beer (4.5%)
Hamm’s Premium Beer (4.7%)
Miller High Life (4.6%)
Cinder Block Brewery’s Real Fine Liquid (4%)
