crisp lager

Refreshing pale beer

A crisp lager is a light, refreshing beer with a clean, sharp taste and no lingering heaviness.

Crisp here suggests the beer is dry and bracing rather than sweet or malty: Nothing beats a crisp lager on a hot day.

The phrase appears constantly in beer marketing and casual conversation about what to drink.
