National Aviation Day’s Craft Beer of the Day: Flyer Red Lager Brewed by Warped Wing Brewing in Dayton, Ohio

August 19, 2024 by Dow Scoggins

National Aviation Day's Craft Beer of the Day: Flyer Red Lager Brewed by Warped Wing Brewing in Dayton, Ohio
Warped Wing Flyer Red American Red Lager
Flyer Red is an American Red Lager crafted by Warped Wing Brewing Company, located in Dayton, Ohio. This beer, with an ABV of 4.5% and an IBU of 12, is a year-round offering available in draft, 6-pack 12 oz cans, and as part of Warped Wing’s Lager Party Pack. It celebrates Ohio’s rich aviation history, paying homage to pioneers like the Wright Brothers, Neil Armstrong, John Glenn, and the presence of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. The beer’s name and red, white, and blue can design reflect this patriotic theme, embodying the spirit of innovation and determination. Thus, the perfect beer for National Aviation Day!

Tasting Notes
Appearance: Pours a reddish-amber or golden-amber color with a light khaki or off-white head. The head may dissipate quickly, with minimal lacing and good carbonation. Some pours may appear yeast-hazed.
Aroma: Features a clean, slightly sweet profile with notes of toasted bread crust, caramelized malts, sweet yellow bread, and gentle floral or grassy hops. Some reviewers note a slight sour or metallic scent in certain batches.
Taste: Balanced and smooth, with a light to moderate malt character. Expect hints of toffee, bready sweetness, and a touch of caramel. A mild hop bitterness provides a dry finish, though some find the flavor understated or slightly metallic.
Mouthfeel: Light to medium-bodied, crisp, and highly drinkable, making it a “crushable” lager ideal for casual sipping.
Food Pairings: Complements shellfish, light seafood, sushi, grilled pork or chicken, Southeast Asian, Latin, Mexican, and spicy dishes. Its versatility suits not-too-heavy pasta dishes as well.

National Aviation Day
National Aviation Day, observed annually on August 19 in the United States, celebrates the pioneering spirit of aviation and its transformative impact on society. Established in 1939 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt, the date coincides with Orville Wright’s birthday, honoring the Wright brothers’ historic contributions to powered flight. The day recognizes the advancements in aviation technology, from the Wright Flyer’s first flight in 1903 to modern jets and spacecraft, highlighting how aviation has connected the world, revolutionized transportation, and expanded human exploration.

The significance of National Aviation Day extends beyond commemorating past achievements; it also inspires future innovation. Aviation has shaped global economies, enabling rapid travel and cargo transport, while military aviation has redefined defense strategies. Events on this day, such as airshows, museum exhibits, and educational programs, engage the public in celebrating pilots, engineers, and scientists who push the boundaries of what’s possible. It’s a moment to reflect on milestones like the moon landing and the rise of commercial aviation, which have made the world more accessible and interconnected.
