Beer Tasting Notes VII
Sep. 24th, 2011 01:13 amUtenos Specialial Iškyloms (5.0%) - This is smoother than the original Utenos and comes in a delightful blue and silver can. Sadly, the can is probably the best thing about this brew as it is decidedly average. Nice picture of a buff gentleman and a bakini-clad girl on the container though.
Baltika2 (4.7%) - Another brew from Russia's Baltika brewery, and one of the better ones. Mellow, clean and an excellent accompaniment to American Dad! This smooth brew is very drinkable indeed.
Ratskrone Pilsner Premium (4.7%) - I think I bought this in a petrol station in Germany for 99 cents. It tastes like it was bought in a petrol station for 99 cents. Perfectly acceptable if not unremarkable.
Lech Pils (5.5%) - Smoother and less gassy than original Lech, this alternative brand from this Polish brewery is a real winner. It comes in a nice gold and green can too, very regal.
Wernesgrüner (4.9%) - We bought a six-pack of this from Kaufland while at EF. Comfortably the most disappointing beer I have ever had out of Germany. Tasteless and incredibly gassy - the German answer to Foster's.
Goose Island India Pale Ale (5.9%) - Chicago's Goose Island is one of my favo(u)rite breweries. This pale ale is quite simply gorgeous. There's a nice deep taste of hops to it while it's also very refreshing.
Goose Island Honker's Ale (4.3%) - Not as nice as their pale ale but it's still a very quaffable brew with considerable depth of flavo(u)r. Quite unique in taste for an ale.
Phoenix Fresh (3.5%) - Beer with lemon?! Surprisingly, this works. However, it may start off refreshing but it becomes more and more like toilet cleaner the further down the bottle you go. In the end it's just sickly. This is a product of Mauritius. which I thought was worth a mention.
