Bofferding Lager Pils
Brasserie Nationale (Bofferding)

 

April 2014: Shared can at local tasting. Pale golden colour. Moderate "neutral" aroma, just a hint of hops. Fairly crisp and half decent pilsener flavour, enough hops to make you want more if the weather is warm enough.

Draft at the Map Room, served in a branded dimpled mug. Bright gold, saturated tone, ample visible carb. Sturdy head of meringue foam, sticky lacing all around the glass. Looks great.

Aroma is mild, crackery pilsner malt mostly, gentle lager yeast.

Taste is mainly crackery malt, slight yeast ester, a light grassy hop bitterness in the aftertaste. Slight papery note.

Light bodied with a creamy texture. Very easy drinking, quaffable even.

Thanks to Joe for this one!

 

A 250ml bottle brought back from Luxembourg by my wife. Pours a straw colour with a white head. Aromas of malts, grain & hay. Tastes of bread, malts, grains, mild hops, leading to a bready mildly bitter finish.

Taste: is rather fresh crisp, clean, wheat like and almost cider fruit notes.
Fresh nose. Pale gold and mostly clear with a delicate lace to head.
Medium lite body. Paired well with the seafood.

I enjoyed it as a nice beer to quench my thirst in the hot Luxembourg summer.

 

 

 

 

From my notes 5/29/2007 pours a one-finger white head that fades slowly leaving an excellent lace. Crystal clear amber color. Slight hoppy nose. Good carbonation and light bodied. Flavor is like a typical euro lager, hoppy, uninspiring. Clean finish. €2.90 ($3.97) on-tap 250ml glass from Hilton Hotel Luxembourg, Luxembourg.
