Hollande 1620 Lager Bier

Brewed by Bavaria Brouwerij (Netherlands)
Style: Pale Lager
Lieshout, Netherlands

Serve in Dimpled mug, English pint, Lager glass, Shaker

11.2 fl oz bottle. Totally clear pale yellow color, minimal head. Mildly skunky, yeasty aroma. A bit over carbonated. Light sour aftertaste. However, better than Heineken IMO, and can’t argue with the $4/6 price.

This beer is a typical beer from Holland. It doesn’t taste real spectacular. Use your money to buy a lottery ticket when you come across this beer.

Purchased at a grocery store in eastern Tennessee because I had never seen it before. Pours a clear pale yellow color with fizzy white head. Skunky pungent saaz hop aroma with corny sweetness. Flavor sweet base, bit of a dry finish, grassy notes. Overall, decent typical euro lager, but nothing really unique.

A crisp pils aroma. The flavor is also dry and crisp but has some butter notes up front that really drag it down.

Basically identical to Heineken, maybe a little better; it’s definitely better than the typical American macro lager. Very slight grassy/hay aroma and flavor. Nothing special and very forgettable.

Pours a clean golden color with a cream-white head. Aroma is light and crisp with no discernible singularities. Flavor is crisp clean and light. Certainly not bad, just not much there. This is probably what bud light wants to taste light. Not great, but easy-drinking.

Clear, yellow, good head. A lot of skunk which is a shame - there’s plenty of malt flavor back there that might otherwise make this one an almost decent beer. Even the finish is nicely bitter. But oh - the skunk...
