Grolsch Premium Pilsner

A yellow beer with an OK yet fast disappearing head. The aroma malty and hoppy with hints of sourness. The flavor is watery at first then the malt-sweetness hits You - and it is nice for a lager and then it ends on a rounded OK bitterness. A very average beer experience - drink it as a thirst quencher - but for that it is too expensive outside of Holland.

Golden coloured. Somehow always a big, unpleasant skunky aroma. Meidum bodied, sweetish with a very industrial feeling to it. Don’t let the fancy bottle fool you, this is nothing else than a cheap lager in disguise.

(Bottle 45 cl) 4,5% ABV. Beautifully golden with a huge head. Soft and malty, heavily carbonated with a distinct hoppy bite in the finish. Very flowery, hoppy nose. Quality lager. 010600

I was a big Grolsch fan in university. Sure, the bottles had something to do with it - it’s the big reason for this beer’s success overseas. It isn’t a bad beer, however. From the deep golden colour to the grassy hop aroma with hints of bready malt to the moderate bitterness and body to the mild grassy hop and light malt palate, it’s a clean and well-made brew.

50 cL can. Pours clear and golden yellow with a huge white head, diminishing to a lacing white head. Aroma hoppy, bitter and light fruity. Flavour starts mild bitter and soon shows a mild and more fruity flavour. Medium sweet malt base. Light fruity bitterness into the finish.
