Fatgodzilla - "More Than A Half Wit"
Light sweet malty aroma, vanilla, clove phenolics, no banana. Would be improved by more aroma. This might be due to age, yeast choice or low fermentation temperature. Slightly hazy, thick head which fell back to a thin head which persisted well. Sweet malt flavour, clove phenolics evident though subdued. Some spiciness from the wheat malt. Pleasant flavours though a little subdued for a weizen. Light-medium body and a smooth, creamy texture, medium-high carbonation enhances mouthfeel. A lightly flavoured weizen which could be improved by a little more of the distinctive esters and phenolics of a German wheat beer. However, this is a very drinkable beer.
Pint of Lager - Munich Lager
Hard to tell much about the aroma because I was cooking Thai curry. Later appeared floral (Hall?). Dark gold, great clarity, perfect fine head which remained as a covering, thin layer. Light, sweet malts along with some more toasted notes, firm bitterness which lingers into a dry finish, floral hop flavour becomes more evident as the curry aromas fade. B) Medium body which is surprising considering the low alcohol level, creamy, dry finish, good level of carbonation for style. A great beer that does not appear to be as low in alcohol as it is. Smooth and flavourful, with malts and hops well balanced. This would be a fantastic session beer, PoL. Good stuff! :super:
