Big Rock Brewery Peach Pilsner – Pilsener at 5% ABV | 25 IBU

Big Rock Brewery Peach Pilsner Pilsener at 5% ABV | 25 IBU (C$2.83 at Quarry Park Calgary Co-Op, 330 ml, best before 25-Nov-2017, acquired 2-Aug-2017, reviewed 2-Aug-2017)

Appearance: clear straw with one finger of fluffy white head diminishing gradually to a thick cap, moderate soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: peach, grainy malt, grass. (7/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, moderate-low bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, moderate carbonation, sweetish slightly sticky finish. (3/5)

Well, nobody can accuse them of being misleading on the label: this is a peach-flavoured Pilsener, all right. The peach dominates both the aromas and the taste, and although it’s not artificial-tasting, it is slightly too sweet for my preference. This becomes most apparent in the finish, which is slightly sweet and sticky. (13/20)

6.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
