Today's beer adventure: Henry Weinhard's Private Reserve Classic Northwest Lager (whew!) (Oregon, USA). 355ml bottle. 4.8% ABV. Served in stolen BP pint glass. Purchased during a recent trip to Plentywood, MT. $9.99USD for a sixer plus all the fees the Canadian and SK governments add on at the border....about $13.00 for the six.The pour is a straw yellow with one finger of white head. Medium/high carbonation. Nose is sweet sweet malt, light floral hops. Not much else to be said there.
The flavour is sweet pear, apples, a bit of citrusy hop, grass. Sparkles on the tongue..high carbonation..very "macro beer".
Rating is 5.75/10 dogs. Better than most macros, but not really that stellar. Meh. S'OK.
