473ml can - this outfit is really into all things nautical, eh? Here, we have a 'European session lager', named after a famous Irish pirate lass.
This beer pours a mostly clear, pale golden straw colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy off-white head, which leaves some thick paint swath lace around the glass as it very lazily sinks out of sight.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, gasohol, an indistinct domestic citrus fruitiness, and some plain earthy, leafy, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, white grape juice, petrol, ethereal lemon/lime pith, and more well understated leafy, floral, and wet grassy verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is rather prominent in its overly fizzy frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, nothing really sticking its nose where it's not wanted here. It finishes off-dry, the graininess and floral hop character predominating in their lingering stances.
Overall - this is a serviceable enough German-style pilsener, with perhaps just a bit too many bubbles to deem it as any sort of pleasurable 'sessional' offering. But the one was enjoyable for what it is, and I'm looking forward to the next sea-worthy brew from Le Corsaire.

Bright pale straw color with a very soft veil and low activity. Foamy white 3 finger head, lasting around 5-10 minutes, with average legs. Flavors of sweet grains dominant corn, light syrup, soft lime, and floral hops. Light strength finish, cereal feel with balanced floral hops. Feels a bit adjunct and way too sugary. Basic euro lager that lacks attenuation in the yeast. Overly accessible and uninteresting. Overall below average quality craft.
