Bottle. Hazy copper color with nice white head. Aroma is piney, grassy, and some older hop flavours, also a bit spicy, toffee and doughy yeast. Taste is spicy, piney, a hint of metal and iron, but not exactly oxidized, some more dough. Some slight off flavours, heavily bitter finish. Nice aroma, okay taste. High fine-bubbled carbonation. Alright.

(Bottle, as "CBC Classic Lager") Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy white head, leaving traces of lacing. Malty nose with notes of bread, citrus, honey, grass and hay. Malty taste with bread, citrus peel, honey and a gentle grassy bitterness in a dry finish. Medium body, quite dry. Well made and tasty. Quite a decent pilsener.
