Commercial Description:
Beer of the Gods is an unusual blend of styles from Old Germany. We’ve taken the pale Pilsner malt used for Cologne’s famed Kölsch style and loads of spicy noble hops used in the best Altbier from nearby Dusseldorf. And we’ve topped it off with a liberal dose of extra aroma hops during a lengthy lagering stage. The result? An American beer that blends the best of two old world classics: a beer as drinkable as the very best Kölsch that satisfies like a supreme Altbier. Think of it as a German-style Farmhouse Ale. Beer of the Gods is, of course, unpasteurized and unfiltered. Alcohol content is 4.9%.

(Bottle). Spicy lemon aroma. Hazy light yellow color with substantial white head. Taste is tart, semi-sweet and bitter, mostly lemon but also some white bread and grassy malt. Nice sustaining finish.

22oz. Bottle: Sweet aroma of lemon, citrus, yeast, hops, and a little grass. Poured gold in color with a medium-sized, fluffy, pillowy, white head that lasted throughout. Hazy. Not sparkling. Full of tiny particles. Excellent lacing. Medium bitter flavor. Tastes of hops, grass, funk, soap, malts, pepper, and raw dough. Medium body. Gritty texture/ Average carbonation. Gross, bitter, slightly sour, dry, raw dough finish.

Bottle from Sainsburys, swindon, England. This is the version brewed in Oxon, England. Pours much paler than I expected, yellow with a golden tinge, thin, white lagery head. Nose is reassuringly funky, lemony, biscuity, blossom. Biscuit carries into the flavour, sweet, sour then bitter quite quickly. earthy hops linger. I quite like it. Im glad its a live beer it may be bland pasteurised.

22oz bottle purchased for $4.50 from Bauer Wines in Boston. Pours a just-opaque light gold with a fluffy head. Gentle hop aroma. Flavour is uninspiring and light. Starts off a bit empty upfront, though it does make its way to a decent mild bitterness in the aftertaste. Nice lacing.

Bomber. Pours gold with a big bright white head. Nose is slightly sweet. Taste is very bitter, way over way way way over bitter with a lot of basic yuck.
