Minhas 1845 Pils

Aroma: 8 | Appearance: 6 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 5 | Overall: 5

A sample bottle picked up for a quarter. Pours a dark golden color. Smell is sweet, some soap, Taste is the same, sweet and soapy, WTF? Finishes dry and is a below average beer.

Part of my complimentary sixer from the Minhas tour the other day. Pours a piss yellow colour. Well carbonated. Nose is lemony, floral and slightly hopped. Taste has corn, slight grainy notes with an herbal finish.

Standard gold body with zero bubbles floating on top 10 seconds after pour, looks completely flat. Aroma is chemical, with grass and compost maybe just maybe I can smell a faint hint of hop and citrus. Light Euro like taste with skunk, metallic hops, grass finishes very clean. Crap boring beer but nothing offensive.

Shit... totally forgot I poured this. Oh well, I ain't cooling it down cause Minhas brewed it and it won't matter one bit. Boring gold brew with a decent amount of foamy white head that sticks around for quite awhile. The aroma is very sweet now - more so than at the initial pour. Sweet grain, nameless fruit, slight skunk, ample malt content with a touch of caramel, my nose wants to pick up metal but I just can't convince it. Most of that sweetness is not found in the taste leaving the majority of the flavour to the soft malts, slight sourness that comes near the finish of every sip. The hops blend in pretty well considering what we are working with here. The more I think about it the more this resembles a big 40oz on something. Why do I feel a head ache coming on? I'm confused. I've enjoyed this but it's pretty much crap.
