Berthold Keller Lager

Berthold Keller Lager


Brewery Martens, Bocholt, Belgium - Lager
Sunday 11 March 2012 – 5%Alc./Vol.    73 / 100

Initial Thoughts
Classy can. Unique, understated, tall with rounded edges. A lot like me really. European beer always catches my eye... Nice mid-amber lager with a stereotypical thick white head. 
First Sip
In spite of the generosity of the head, this beer looks really still in the glass. Upon tasting, it is really low on the bubbles-scale. I like this stillness, some might call it too flat. 
Halfway Through
This Belgian beauty presents a nice, consistent, proud bitterness. Great use of hops. As a lager should!
Bottoms Up
Good strength from the influential hops gives a slight, almost metallic bite from start to finish. A good durable head that stuck around for the duration. Overall a reliable example of euro-lager that represents the marque well on the world stage. Shouldn’t disappoint.
