Evo Pils
Detroit Beer Co.

12 ounce bottle into lager glass, no bottle dating. Pours crystal clear medium golden yellow color with a 1 finger dense white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice dense soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of lemon, pineapple, orange, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, light pepper, and floral/grassy earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance of citrus/earthy hops and pale malt notes; with solid strength. Taste of lemon, pineapple, orange, cracker, biscuit, light honey, herbal, light pepper, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, pineapple, orange, cracker, biscuit, herbal, light pepper, and floral/grassy earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Very nice robustness and balance of citrus/earthy hops and pale malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance, and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Very clean on lager flavors, with zero yeast notes present. Minimal dryness from bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, moderately creamy/bready/grainy, fairly crisp, and slightly sticky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5.2%. Overall this is a very nice Czech pilsener style. All around nice robustness and balance of citrus/earthy hops and pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, clean, and refreshing to drink. The Mandarina Bavaria hops add some nice unique flavors; but this still feels spot on for the style all around. A very enjoyable offering.
