Better Bitters Nickel Brook Light

The last 2 posts answer my questions. Purchased a 6 pack at the brewery that had 2 pilsners and 4 lights in it. Anyways it was a good beer. Poured a nice gold colour with average carbonation. Aroma to me was sweet malts. Flavor was excellent for a light beer but if your going to call it a pilsner you might have to vamp it up alittle. All in all though a very tasty beer. I would drink this over Steam Whistle any day.

Sampled at the Kitchener Craft Beer show. This brewery in particular really impressed me at this show. I had to actually email the brewery to confirm which beer this was, it has an alternative name, that being "pilsner", supposedly, which is rather annoying, god I wish brewers could stick to ONE name. This is probably the best brew they make that I’ve tried. Very fruity and malty, it’s very refreshing and enjoyable. This shouldn’t really affect the beer experience for me, but I still feel like I’m holding back points on this one just for the confusion.

Now called Nickel Brook Pilsner. Pours sparkling gold with not much head to speak of, just a light dusting. Flowery hoppy aroma with cookie, mild yeast, some malty sugars. Very flavourful light beer. Lots of hop bitterness (floral, herbal flavours) some sweet malts, cookie dough, a tough of lemongrass. Very clean finish, slightly bitter. A well made beer.

not a light beer fan but if i was going to be id drink this, yellow color, good amount of white head, grassy nose. good decent english malt flavour, some small amounts of hops.

I don’t have much reason or inclination to drink light beer, but this one is a cut above average and well beyond the typical offerings for the style There is actually some malt character and flavour, as well as a lacy head and crisp, refreshing finish. Good enough to not give a bad name to the notion of lawnmower beer.
