Casablanca (Casa Beer)

Tap at Epcot food and wine. Pours golden color with big white head. Soapy barley aroma. Taste is clean and crisp, but nothing special. Good for a hot day.

355ml brown bottle. Pours a pale yellow colour, seems to have some light hazing. Faint white head. Aroma is slightly grainy, has some straw/grass hop accents. In the mouth - grainy malts, bread crust and some grassy hop flavour. Noticable grassy/leafy bitterness in finish, some mineral notes. Active tight carbonation, light mouthfeel.

Bottle. Pours clear pale amber with a bubbly white head sustained by rising carbonation. Aroma of biscuit and caramel with grass and a touch of grain. Light body without being watery, medium carbonation. Lightly sweet taste that mirrors the nose. I see it’s listed as a pale lager, but it seems to be drifting into Pils territory.

2nd African lager of the night. Same as the first not bad but nothing great. A bit staw and corn like but refreshing.

Bottle (Expires 7/26/08) Pours pale golden with a white film for head. The aroma has a hint of sweet pale malt and some straw. The texture is great for a Pale Lager. Creamy and tight. There’s some mildly sweet flavors from a pale malt presence, giving it a solid light body. The finish has a solid grassy bitterness. This is one of the better Pale Lagers of the world.

33 cL bottle. Pours clear yellow with a thick white head. Slight bitter and minor sweet malty aroma. Starts soft malty with a hint of caramel and reveals a slight metallic edge and a minor fruity note before the finish. Has a bit of salt and some liqourice like flavour to it. Finish holds a nice blend between mildly roasted caramel malt and bitterness. Good.

Pours a slightly hazed straw gold with a white head that leaves a pretty fair amount of lacing on the way down. Nose is barely there with a dried lemon tone and a bit of grain attribute as well. Flavor is slightly bitter citric. A touch of metallic edge to it. Feel is standard with carbonation. Drinkable, I guess. Nothing to really write home about. If I were in Morocco, I am sure my choices would be limited, so it would have to do. But for here in the U.S., no great shakes (but a little bit better than I had expected).

bottle picked up from Dodgi’ Deli, Cowley Road Straw coloured beer with small white head, some grain on the nose, light malty, quite fizzy, lack of hops and quite sweet.
