Gotta love that Sankaty Light is not just a description of the beer—its named for an actual lighthouse on Nantucket. Brooklyn's Coney Island has a lighthouse, too, though the most popular beer there is probably Bud Light. But we digress. Brooklyn Lager, like most finely-crafted lagers, is malty but lets the hops shine through (thanks to dry-hopping, a technique usualy reserved for IPAs). Sankaty also has a nice hop character, and, at 126 calories, is a true light Light.
