Bottle, bought @ Beermerchants.com.
Pours pale golden with a fine, staying, frothy, white head. Aroma is sweet, some brewing cereal, light citric, some hay and a mild grassy note. A touch of sulphur as well. Medium carbonation, fair mouthfeel if it is a tad watery. Flavour is mild, malty sweet, some hops are present. Mostly citric ones, but also a little grassy. Okay pils.
2.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle. Blonde. Malty milky aroma. Malty sweetish flavor with hints of apple. Medium bodied. Could be a credible Czech type beer, if more hops were used.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Draft... Clear light yellow lager with a mid-sized, creamy, white head. Great retention. Doughy, grainy, spicy nose – white pepper, American biscuit and straw stand out. The commercial description says saaz hops and I certainly detect noble hops here. Light to medium-bodied and fizzy. The flavor is clean and balanced with a snappy hop appeal. Crisp, bready, grassy finish.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
(bottle, 25cl, as Estaminet Premium Pils) Clear, pale golden colour with a short foamy white head. Slightly dusty strawy malty aroma with grassy and slightly herbal hops. Moderately sweet and slightly bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a crisp mouthfeel. Slim malty and shy grainy taste with traces of herbal hops; sweet-bitter and slightly herbal hoppy finish with a discreetly grainy aftertaste. Drinkable but pretty boring. 01.XI.10
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Medium, fine-bubbled head over clear metallic golden beer. Dryish pale malts and some good hops’ aromas. Quite dry, quite hayish flavour, again noble hops. Finish with more hay, grassy, garden herbs and peppery. Quite slick, light to medium bodied, long dry aftertaste. Either my taste has changed, either Estaminet is night and day vis-ŕ-vis the former Bock Pils, the utterly hateful industrial pilsner from Palm. This is really nice in its segment.
