Another Premium Pilsner

Premium Pilsner

Brock St. Brewing Co.

5.2% Alcohol

Brock Street brewers, you know, the brewery with the audacious claim of being the most refreshing street in Canada. One can only hope. And another Premium Pilsner, it seems like there are more premium brews than Dodds has pills. Makes you wonder which pilsner is the most premium, the premier prime premium pilsner, the premiumest*. This brew has quite the pedigree, a Bavarity Purity Law abider and gold medal winner. A Bohemian pilsner they say, but will it be a bohemian rhapsody**? Time to taste and tell.

By the way, I wonder if you would call a top-notch fortune teller a Premium Medium***?

A nice light golden pour, clear and present but no danger. Some would say a premium pour.

A nightcap head for a boathouse fireside quaff. A nice light malt bread aroma. The first swig is very subtle sweet smooth and tasty with a malt smooth slightly crisp finish. No fruit, hops, zing bitter or bite. The sweet start migrated to the finish which worked very well.

A  solid flavoured easy drinking pils, with a crisp slightly sweet finish, some would say a near perfect premium pilsner for a warm evening quaff and I would have to agree.

 

*Editor’s Comment: Not a real word, not that not being a real word has ever prevented our reviewers from using one.

**Editor’s Comment: "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a song by the British rock band Queen from their fourth album, A Night at the Opera (1975), written by lead singer Freddie Mercury. Described as a 6 minute rock opera, it is not a typical rock song but it garnered widespread public approval. In 1992 it played a prominent role in the movie “Wayne’s World”, an odd musical soundtrack selection which ended up working very well and renewed public interest in the song.

***Editor’s Comment: “I met a little gypsy, In a fortune telling place. She read my mind, And then she slapped my face.” Lyrics from David Wilcox’s song “Play on Your Harp”.
