Style Context
As category context only, the Brewers Association guideline page lists no style named International-Style Amber Lager; its Vienna-Style Lager entry calls for 4.8 to 5.4 percent ABV and 20 to 26 IBU, deep gold to reddish brown, with light toasted or caramel malt sweetness and low, clean noble hop bitterness. The published strength and bitterness are slightly above those Vienna category ranges.

Research Notes
- First pass: The brewery home page does not list the beer, and the Scottsdale drinks menu is published only as an image that could not be read.
- First pass: A Brew Your Own homebrew clone of a Vienna Lager from "McFate Brewing Co." in Scottsdale (5.5% ABV, 27 IBU, Pilsner and Vienna malts, Warrior and Saaz hops) was read, but nothing ties it to the name Pueblo, so none of its figures are used here.
- First pass: Searches for the beer name found nothing; a separate, closed Boulder brewery also used the Fate name and is unrelated.
- First pass: No 2026 medal announcement from the brewery was found.
- First pass: Researched 2026-10-13.
- Second pass 2026-10-13: TapHunter explicitly identifies Pueblo Vienna Lager from Fate in Scottsdale and supplies the selected figures. It marks the beer out of production, which may be stale; current availability remains unconfirmed. No named ingredients were verified.
- Field pass 2026-10-13: Additional brewery-domain and hop searches found no exact Pueblo beer page or named hop variety. The previously documented McFate clone remains excluded.
- Catalog.beer 2026-10-14: Catalog.beer: Pueblo Vienna Lager lists 5.5% ABV, 28 IBU, style "Mexican-Style Vienna Lager" (entry last modified 2026-10-11). Where it differs from the brewery's own published value, the brewery's value stands.
- Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: the brewery site was read; it has no Pueblo Vienna Lager description.
