What the heck ... lager ?!? 
Well, it's indeed an interesting sharp variation! The immediate 6...Kd7 is better than 6...g6. In the position on the diagram, white has a serious advantage. Possible best lines: 9. Kd1, 9. Rb1 and 9. exf6.
Interesting variation, similar with this well known line in Tarrash :
Sure engines prefer white in your final position, but it seems a fighting way to deal with this Bd3.
As mentionned, 6...Kd7 is interesting (maybe better but not sure...).
Thomas Rendle proposes Nge7 instead of f6, he gives a video series on 3...Nc6 on chess.com :
I am not sure about f6 in his line, i prefer developing first, like this Jobava's game :
I am trying out the Hecht Reefschlager variation in the French. My only source is John Watson's Dangerous Weapons: The French, which doesn't give the line I've just encountered. It looks very sharp, and a quick analysis with Fritz suggests it might be a promising idea for White. Any thoughts?
