KBC Tadaima
Czech Pils 4.5%

Deep yellow fold with fluffy white foam that doesn’t linger but leaves soapy lacing behind. Nice bready herbal aroma. Medium bodied with prickly carbonation. Solid lager and I love the name.

KBC Hop Idol Citra

Gold with dense foam that leaves some lacing behind. Tutti frutti but with some dankness, quite full on. Tasty but not quite as balanced as the other two I’ve had in this series.

Open Air x Our Brewing Fancy a Cuppa?
Earl Grey English Ale 5.5%

This reddish brown beer with thick beige foam has a fantastic earl grey aroma. Once you pour the bottom of the can the beer becomes murky and you get flecks of what I assume are tea at the bottom of the glass. If you’re looking for a nicer looking beer leave 5% in the can to avoid the dregs or have it on tap.

The taste on this medium bodied beer is spot on. Top knotch beer/tea hybrid but who is Our Brewing?

I believe I picked this up at CBB.

Schlenkerla Erle 4.2%

This smoked schwarzbier has a milder smokey aroma than many of their other beers. Medium to light bodied with good chocolate maltiness and light smokiness.

This is good. Not as stellar as some but definitely a solid beer.
