16oz glass at the Edmonton north-side location. A Bohemian-style Pilsner, eh?
This beer appears a clear, medium golden yellow hue, with one finger of puffy, tightly foamy, and mildly creamy off-white head, which leaves a bit of remote islet lace around the glass as it quickly abates.
It smells of grainy, doughy pale malt, a stony flintiness, a bit of underripe apple, not so subtle diacetyl, and earthy, leafy, and somewhat floral hops. The taste is more gritty, doughy, and bready pale malt, tart applesauce, that same flintiness from the aroma, and fairly crisp weedy, grassy hops.
The carbonation is moderate via its tame frothiness, the body medium-light in weight, and mostly smooth, but for a bit of hop and stale butter acridity. It finishes generally off-dry, equally hoppy and grainy.
A plain, easy-drinking, low-end Big Rock lager (and not really anything like the old-world style it - or the restaurant, whatever - aspires to), which of course goes well enough with various pub food - better than I might have imagined.
