My Editor warned me about reviewing this one, take it easy on the Mafia he said. He didn’t realize that Thin Man is based in Buffalo NY and Pills Mafia is a tailgate tip of the tankard to the Bills Mafia, the hardcore Buffalo Bills football fan base. I’ve been a Dallas fan since Staubach’s rookie season, but my loyalty is wavering and I think that these days the Bills are the new “America’s team”, as long as Josh Allen doesn’t start doing Head & Shoulders commercials.* Go Bills!
This isn’t our first Nick and Nora** adventure. We previously convened the COMDB jury for Thin Man’s Trial by Muskrat and sentenced it to super suds status. Time to park the pickup and partake in a pre-game punt and pour of this Pills of a pilsner.
Ice cold and nice to hold, my pils glass was a perfect fit for this sporty shorty. A golden clear beer, with a slim trim head. The aroma is mild malt with a touch of fruit. The taste is “la meme chose”*** as on the nose. Malt fruit with a crisp finish, smooth, no bitters. Crisp and clean, smooth as an Allen to Shakir option play with a finish as satisfying as an untouched Cook end zone run.
Did someone mention tailgate party? Because this beer was made for that. Solid, easy drinking and a nice finishing pils. Go Pills Go!
