Impression: This is generally not one of my favorite styles. They seem to be on the bland side. This was super fizzy but it seemed it’s a VERY lively beer as the head was absolutely massive and there was still head in the glass when I finished it and I didn’t just throw it down either. It was very refreshing after walking around the rather large outdoor museum and it was tastier than many I’ve had. It also had a lingering hoppiness to the finish without being particularly bitter. I think if it hadn’t been so gassy, I’d have liked it more. It would certainly be a good session beer.
Next beer or back to the beer list.
