Butte Creek Organic Pilsner

Brewed by Butte Creek Brewing Company
Style: Bohemian Pilsener
Chico, California USA

Bottle Pours a clear light yellow with a small white head. I looked back and the head was gone. Teha aroma is musty grass and grains. Has a decent carbination. Has an okay flavor more than it looked like it would have. Has a light body. A decent crisp finish. With an okay aftertaste. This is not as bad as you may think it would be. I can drink it.

Bottle (12oz). Organic - pffft - loses two points just for self-aggrandizement and bullshit. Hazy, flat and lemony-looking pale gold, small fizzy white head. Smells pretty decent, lemon grass and a little honey. The taste is a little jagged, grassy, but a little sour, grainy aftertaste. Flat, thin mouthfeel, a little too acidic, slightly harsh on the palate - smells good, and apart from a lack of carbonation, quite decent - although the bitter aftertaste made me thirstier than when I popped the bottle.

Bottle at restaurant eloise. Clear honey yellow with no head. Sweet grain and bread aroma and taste with some floral honey notes.

Comes out of the tap a clear straw yellow with a fluffy and fine-bubbled white head. Aroma is crisp and malty with a hint of apple. Flavor is malty and apply, fairly crisp, but a tone of wilting lettuce tended to get stronger as I drank it. Then again, pilsners are not my favorite sort of beer. Texture is smooth and a little tingly, about average. Maybe I got some from a bum batch, or maybe organic pilsners are not for me.

16 ounce pint - $5.00 at Taco Mac (Crabapple) in Roswell, Georgia. Appearance: Displays a nearly clear, light yellow body with a small, but persistent, white head. Smell: Lightly grainy pils malt nose, a bit sweet-smelling, and with supporting floral and spicy hop overtones and a meager note of lemony citrus. Taste: Pilsner malts with a sweaty, lightly sweet cereal grain character starts followed by a sweetish floral, lightly spicy European Noble hop character and medium bitterness. Add in a teaspoon of fresh lemonade. The graininess intensifies throughout the pint. Finishes dry, faintly grainy, and with a mild, lasting hop bitterness. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Fairly refreshing and drinkable. It dutifully served its function well as a warm-up beer before the release of the final keg (at least in GA) of Hop Secret 393.

A- Pours a very light, murky yellow hue, very little head that is mostly diminishing, no lacing S- Nose is of grain, grass, earth/dirt, and a good dose of hay, some very light citrus in the background as well T- Initial taste is grassy/earthy hops and hops dominate throughout, some grainy malts in there as well, a little bit of citrus, crisp,dry finish M- Light-bodied pilsner, watery, smooth texture, carbonation is a little biting D- This is very easy-drinking and could easily be a session beer at 4%abv, I find this a smooth and refreshing pilsner, I am really digging on the earthy flavoring, you truly get an ’Organic’ feel from this beer

Bottle. This is an average beer with not a whole lot in taste. Pours a golden color with almost no head at all. Leaves some lacing on the side of the glass. Drinkable beer

Probably the borest one of the four organics from this brewery I have tried. It is not bad just too simple.
