Czech-style pale lager collaboration with Bierstadt Lagerhaus (Denver, CO), makers of the famed “Slow Pour” Pils. Soft, malty, and crisp, this is a “10 degree” Czech-style decoction-mashed pale lager, brewed entirely with Czech-grown ingredients. “Side Pull” refers to the iconic Czech-style beer faucet that produces an especially velvety, tight bubble foam. Best served with as much jiggly foam as you can muster. Live life above the rim.

Not bad pilsner Czech style I guess. Not nearly as good as the beers that I had in CR but very drinkable.
