Quidi Vidi Brewing Company Light Lager Euro Pale Lager at 4% ABV (C$2.21 at NLC Stavanger, 341 ml, no bottle date or best before, reviewed 13-Apr-2016)
Appearance: clear pale straw with a short loose foamy white head diminishing rapidly to a thin skim, no lacing. (2/5) Aroma: sweet biscuity pale malt, corn syrup, grassy. (5/10) Taste: moderate sweet, mild bitter. (5/10) Palate: light body, moderate carbonation, short duration and slightly mouth-coating finish. (2/5)
Look, it is what it is, OK? And what it is, is a light, super pale euro-style lager. It’s clean, fairly crisp, and easy to drink. Like so many pale lagers, though, even though I know there’s no corn or rice in it, the sweetness still gives it something of an adjunct character. Still better than a Coors Light, though – if only barely. (9/20)
