What the brewers say

“Czech lager with Sugar Creek Edelweiss Malt. Collab with Cohesion.”

What our panel thought

“Rich, sweet, round bready malt in the nose. Sweet malt in the flavor. Faint hint of ripe berries. Balance is slightly toward the sweetness with a very subdued bitterness. Incredibly soft and pillowy in the mouthfeel. Soft acidic, almost minerally, note lingers into a sweetish finish.”

What our editors thought

“Feels like a traditional beer that has staled just a touch. Toasty malt with lime edges in the sip, malt in the nose. Hops are present but subdued.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Maplewood Brewing Company Pulaski Pils

Subtle aroma with woody, floral, lemon-lime-soda notes. Flavor is softer, slightly flabby, low on bitterness; lightly nutty with spicy hops. A savory impression has nowhere to hide. Dry, crisp finish. Drinks very light, without much to say. Pretty clean. Nice lingering bitter-grainy note.

Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. Nooner Pilsner

**Aroma:** “Light fruity esters, with a touch of Pilsner malt, but very low aroma overall. Some sweet breadiness and light citrus, with a mild floral spice. Lemon and pepper, with some biscuit underneath that’s very delicate.” **Flavor:** “The front hits with some bready biscuit malt sweetness, as well as some cracker. Light, fruity citrus notes, with some pear, watermelon, and spice character. The hops are floral and spicy, which balances the malt sweetness. The bitterness is a bit bigger than the malt and hops flavors, but the beer is smooth, with a creamy mouthful.” **Overall:** “Dry and light, with a bitterness up front that’s not too overwhelming, followed by the sweetness of the malt in the middle, and a creamy sweetness. Clean and refreshing.”

Good Word Brewing & Public House Day Fripper

“Rich aroma of beechwood-smoked malt. Palate follows up with a touch of banana peel. Pillowy and soft on the palate. Very well balanced and full for such a small beer. A beautiful expression of smoke.”
