Cisco Shark Tracker Light Lager





My craft salesman gave me Cisco's newest beer to try over the weekend, Shark Tracker Light Lager. With a light lager already in their line up, Sankaty Light Lager, I was curious to taste this new product. 

Packaged in 12-ounce cans with a 4.8%ABV, it's an American style light lager. Pours a clear pale yellow with a nice white head. The taste is clean, bready with mild grassy hops. There is not much of an aftertaste. The body is light and has a medium carbonation. 

I do prefer the Sankaty Light Lager, because it has a stronger hop finish unlike most light beers. Yet, I would certainly take the Shark Tracker with me to the beach as it's smooth and easy to drink.    

The most interesting aspect of this beer is the partnership with Ocearch, a non-profit organization that enables researchers and institutions to generate previously unattainable data on great white sharks. The beer has a code that allows you to scan the can with the ocearch.org app. The app will then show you where tagged great white sharks have been spotted around the world in real time. As a bonus Cisco Brewers is donating $3.00 to Ocearch from every purchase of the Shark Tracker Light Lager. 

Plus perfect to drink during shark week (starting August 10th)! Do you have a favorite Cisco Brewers beer? Have a wonderful day!
