The Establishment Brewing Company Something For Your M.I.N.D. – Pilsner at 5.0% ABV (C$5.00 at Safeway, 473 ml, packaged on 15-May-2026, acquired 3-Jun-2026, reviewed 4-Jun-2026)
Appearance: brilliantly clear pale straw with one fat finger of creamy white head, excellent retention and moderate clingy lacing. (5/5) Aroma: crackery malt, citrus, floral & grassy, hint of DMS. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, moderate bitter. (7/10) Palate: medium light body, moderate-high carbonation, dry crisp finish. (4/5)
Experimental hop HBC 1134. I dunno, maybe I have to drink more Pilsners and get tuned up on the style, but it’s hard for me to get excited about them unless they’re highly-hopped abominations that would cause a German brewer to have a seizure. As far as I can tell, this conforms well to the BJCP guidelines for a German Pils, which is basically the base style to the hoppier Italian style. (15/20)
This will be my 6423rd unique Untappd check-in.
