This deep gold coloured pilsner (pilsner is a style of lager) flows into a glass with good carbonation creating a solid and proper head.
The scent this beer creates is simply a beautiful showcase of the wonderfully fresh and premium ingredients which include pale malt, caramalt, munich malt and whole leaf hops. Upon watching and smelling this beer, you already know this is no ordinary lager.
The enigmatic taste, unexpectedly steals your attention like the presence of a thick Scottish accent in an outback pub in the Northern Territory of Australia. Again, the highly scrutinised ingredients boast a brilliant, bold malt and bitterness that finishes off this very smart brew.
"Think of everything you know about lagers. Then forget it all instantly." - Excerpt from brewdog website.
Being a brew from the cold northern lands that is Scotland, this weeks Beer Reflection probably should be suggesting traditional Scottish cuisine such as haggis, neeps and tatties... But, this week the theme of tradition is being exchanged with eccentric (maybe due to the influence from the team at brewdog). Thai Green Curry is a perfect match for this large beer. The Fresh load of ingredients within this pilsner compliment the 'bang' of a green curry.
I cannot begin to even express how much this beer will change your perspective on the way a pilsner, or lager for that matter, should taste.
