Cock and Bull German Pils is a well-executed Pilsner that pays homage to the classic German brewing style. Brewed by the talented team at Steam Brewing Company in New Zealand, this beer boasts a golden-hued appearance with a brilliant clarity and a tight, white head that gradually dissipates, leaving a delicate lacing on the glass. The aroma is crisp and hoppy, with a pronounced floral and citrusy character. Notes of lemongrass, grapefruit, and a hint of spice emerge, enticing the senses. On the palate, a lively and refreshing experience awaits. The grainy sweetness is well-balanced by the assertive bitterness of the hops, which take center stage. Flavors of peppery spice, citrus, and herbal notes dance on the tongue, creating a harmonious and satisfying taste profile. The medium-bodied and crisp mouthfeel, coupled with a lively effervescence, contribute to the beer's clean and dry finish, leaving a refreshing aftertaste. Cock and Bull German Pils is an authentic and well-crafted lager that showcases the best of New Zealand hops and the classic German brewing tradition, making it an ideal accompaniment to light meals, salads, and social gatherings.
