SeasonalAbout Zimmermann Vienna Lager by Elite Brewing & Cidery
Vienna malt lager with Mexican lager yeast, strong grain presence, mild corn notes, delicate fruitiness. Named after the "Zimmermann Telegram" which was a secret diplomatic communication issued from the German Foreign Office in January 1917 that proposed a military alliance between Germany and Mexico. In the event that the United States entered World War I against Germany, Mexico would recover Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. The telegram was intercepted and decoded by British intelligence.
