An ode to the infamous ‘California Common’ or Steam Beer, Cali Rare has bright citrus fruit on the nose and a touch of sweetness from the corn used in brewing.

0.33 l bottle from 'yeme', best before November 2018. A bit hazy, golden yellow with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, fruity-grassy and slightly resiny aroma of lemon, pineapple and some pine. Moderately sweet, slightly bitter, rather fruity-grassy taste of lemon, grapefruit and pineapple, followed by a short, medium bitter, quite grassy and slightly resiny finish. Medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Good!

Bottle from Pivný raj. Pours pale yellow. Nice yeasty aroma and lovely taste where yeast walk hand in hand with hops. Very good for this style.

Draft glass @ Gollem. Quite hazy bright orange, nice creamy white head. Marketed as a California common but the taste screams IPL & even the appearance makes you briefly think of the NEIPA craze. Lager adapted to the current IPA favouring, hey its quite good so what does it matter. Nose is nice tropical fruit but more on the peel than on fruity. Taste is lovely bitter mango peel, grapefruit peel, thick bodied, creamy, finish is surprisingly harsh, lingering, bitter, very dry. More harsh than is currently fashionable, dryness works. Nice beer.
