20oz pint at the pub in the downtown east side of Calgary.

This beer appears a hazy pale golden amber colour, with one finger of tightly foamy ecru head, which leaves some decent cobwebbed lace around the glass as it slowly sinks away.

It smells of crisp, crackery cereal malt, lemon peel, and peppy grassy, leafy hops. The taste is more of the same, with semi-sweet grainy cereals, aged lemon flesh, musty grassy hops, and a hint of mineral water.

The bubbles are soft, but duly supportive, if a bit airy, the body an adequate medium weight, and mostly smooth, the hops minding their own business in this respect. It finishes dry, crisp, and bitterly leafy.

A well made Czech-style Pils, all crisp, biscuity, crackery, and hoppy. Full-on goodness, worthy of a session watching the footie, and all things in-between, with some sort of fried fish or cheese pub food - good thing this place has got that too!
