A lager that pours smoothly without an over-inflated head, Pistonhead Flat Tire has a balanced and rich malt body and balanced, slightly marked bitterness. Centennial and Mosaic varieties of American hops give the brew a fresh floral aroma with hints of tropical fruit and citrus.

33 cl can from Systembolaget Karl Johanssgatan, Majorna. Sampled on September 18, 2014. BB 24 Aug 15.Clear golden color, big lasting white head. Grassy, cale, vegetal, cat pee, sulphur, unpleasant scent. Weak, buttery, sweet, sugary taste. Thin weak mouthfeel, medium bitterness. Grassy, herbal, sugary aftertaste.I think it was at a tasting at work someone said they really liked this one, so I figured I’d buy one. Fooled me didn’t he? Kalle Svensson buying a can by the label and wanting a tiny tad bit more than Mariestads might think this is fantastic and enjoyable, for me it is bland, dull, not really well made, unbalanced and something I’ll dump down the drain... Actually, it does leave some pretty lacing on teh side of the glass, so looks nice when poured and when I’ve had a few sips, before the drain comes closer.

Cann 33 cl. Pours a clear, pale yellow with a dense, white head. Lovely exotic Mosaic aroma, really juicy. Body is very thin, a little sweet malts but it’s really just a vehicle for these lovely, juicy hops. Not very bitter. But an excellent quencher. 090914

33cl can. Bbe 28 JUL 2015. Clear golden, thick white head. Citrusy hoppy aroma, floral notes. Not had. Flavor has citrus, tropical fruity notes. Decent bitterness. Slightly harsh finish, but overall a nice premium lager. Nice surprise, could well drink again. Session beer.

330ml can, trade with djoeye. Film-type, lacing layer to a next to clear, golden coloured body. Sweaty hops on the nose, backdrop of grainy malts. Likewise, the taste profile is made up by sweaty hops, a citric touch, and pale malts. Drying closure. Medium to thin bodied. Rather bland in the mouth. Drinkable, but easy to forget (shared with Finn at his place, Tromsø 25.06.2014).
