1.9 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 6/20
UPDATED: JUL 20, 2008 Sold as ’Czech Pils’, but matches Geth_in_beer’s description, so I’ll rate it here. Sampled this a couple weeks ago as ’lager’, and again tonight as ’Czech Pils’. Very pretty, brilliant golden with a persistent film of silky white head and visible carbonation. Positives end there. Strange, unpleasant hop aroma seemed skunky, a surprising feat in a brewpub. Flavour was relatively bland, with no pils sweetness at all, and a disproportionate bilious hop bitterness. Clean lager yeast profile. Not recommended.
1.9 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
On tap in the Rogues. Blah. Weird flavour and skunky aroma. Not sure at this attempt at a lager. Not refreshing or crisp. Just weird.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Floral and slightly fruity (strawberry) aroma. Bright gold colour with a thick creamy mostly diminishing white head. Very refreshing, slightly prickly mouthfeel, to go with a moderately perfumed bitterness that starts light then builds and lingers. Decent lager.
