Czech Me Out
New Glory Craft Brewery

Picked up one of these back in July 2018.

Pours golden. 1/3" white head. Its not cloudy, but nonetheless looks slightly unfiltered. Has a real nice noble hoppy and sulphur lager yeast going for it. Right on.

Taste, yeah man, another summer banger lager from New Glory (just had that Daydream Ethos the other night too, another legit one). Crisp, lightly bready, light honey pale malt feel (no idea if actually part of recipe, just tastes like it) and a good bright, floral lightly spicy (now I know why I've been digging Sabro so much in ales!) noble hop bite that fuses wonderfully with a strong lager yeast presence at every stage.

Carbonation is up and appropriate. Brisk mouth feel with subtle hay and grassy notes. Easy to crush but plenty flavorful. I would totally bang these again. Well done stuff with little to no fan fare. New Glory does a few things pretty well, pastry stouts, hoppy ales, but I think they stand out most on their hoppy lagers like this.

The beer pours out a clear pale golden straw color with a tinge of haze, and 2 fingers of white head----------------- the aromas are of Bread dough, floral/grassy hops and a slight dankness--------------- the flavors are of sweet malt, crackers, light grass and some spice, the beer has a thin mouthfeel with a spicy dry finish------------------- overall this was a nice take on the Czech pillsner, it was sweet up front with some spice on the finish-

 

 

 

 

Appearance - Pours relatively clear and golden yellow in color with a white, frothy one-finger width head. Fair retention, resulting in a thin, broken layer of suds. A few small spots make up the lacing.

Smell - Bready malt aroma with a solid backing of spicy and floral hops.

Taste - Follows the nose. Bready and crackery malts upfront before a solid punch of spicy, floral hoppiness kicks in. Light hay emerges from beneath by mid-taste. Balanced finish of bread, hay and spicy hops.

Mouthfeel - Light in body with a fair amount of bitey carbonation. Slick texture with a crisp, clean and mostly dry finish.

Overall - Nothing special, but it's a well done classic Czech Pils. Maybe a little pricey all things considered, but it makes for a nice drinker on a hot day.
