This post is being forced. It is a nice Friday, early evening and to be honest I would sooner just drink it than think and about it write.
Pilsner. What can one hope to say about a pilsner? It's probably the most standardised style of beer across the world. This one hails from northern Ontario, in Canada. The delightful, wild cottage country of the Greater Toronto Area. Lake of Bays is nestled among probably millions of lakes with bays whose shores are dotted with the "cottages" of Ontario's weekend getaway set. Truly a beautiful place. Let's see how they do with cooking up a pilsner.
Brassy yellow and ever so slightly hazy. It looks every bit a pilsner. Snappy hop bitterness. Marvellous bready fermented grain aromatics.
Do I detect a dash of sweetness? This, dear beer enthusiasts, I will offer is a truly wonderful North American example of a great pilsner.
I would shortlist this for the pilsner I use to stock my own home refrigerator with if I was predisposed to such imprudence.
85/100
