Part of this Christmas season 4-pack of YYZ FlightPack. Clean, light-golden colour with a white cap, fair stay and some light foamy lacing on top of the brew. Pils nose with the sweet malts giving cereal notes and some light spicy herbal hops. The taste shows some mineral water notes, light bitterness, decent dryness with that mild spicy Saaz hop snap. Refreshing, crisp mouthfeel and well-brewed all-around.

Bread and cereals brings us a pretty standard olfactory supported by slight herbaceous notes. Golden liquid, clear and very sparkling, covered with a rocky head, medium size and quite persistent. Taste is hoppy, herbaceous, but with small metallic notes. The malt flavors are discreet but ensure a cereal background with a powerful and tenacious bitterness. Fairly standard, acceptable, but the small metallic taste is annoying and the complexity of the malty flavors is deficient. Pain et céréales nous amène un olfactif des plus standard et soutenu par de légères notes herbacées. Liquide doré, limpide et très effervescent, couvert d’une mousse rocailleuse de taille moyenne et assez persistante. En bouche, c’est houblonné, herbacé, mais avec de petites notes métallisées. Les saveurs de malt sont discrètes mais assurent un fond céréalier à une amertume puissante et tenace. Assez standard, acceptable, mais le petit gout métallique est agaçant et la complexité des saveurs maltées est déficiente. O:5.8 V:4.25 G:7.45 C:4.0 O:12.3 T:33.80
