Casablanca (Casa Beer)

Brewed by Société des Brasseries du Maroc (Heineken)
Style: Pale Lager
Casablanca, Morocco

Bottled. Pale golden, large white head. Rather malty and grassy, hoppy aroma. Thin palate. Some maltiness with alco-feel. Some grassiness.

Medium bodied, just a bit soapy. Some hopbitterness, not from fresh hops, I’m afraid. Short bitter aftertaste. Below average pale lager.

An interesting lager, not bland and watery like I expected. The taste is a mixed bag, roasted tones are prevalent, but there is an odd mixture of straw, palm oil, and raisin. Half good, half bad, really. The mouthfel is good and filling, but as soon as it goes down your throat it leaves your mouth feeling very dry. This sensation goes along with a faint grit in the beer, and coupled with the earthy flavors, is quite reminiscent of sand.

On tap at Epcot - Pale color, light watery flavor. Hay and straw flavor. Refreshing at leasst.

I could expect more from this beer, but IRonically, it had a sandy taste, hahaha. Morrocans don’t drink beer, but I guess it is made for foreigners. I liked it.

Poured a clear golden color with an averaged sized white head. Straw and grass aroma. Also a little funky. Some sweet malts in the taste but still a little funky.

Clear straw body topped by smallish white head. Aroma is skunky, some grass, light biscuit. Taste is medium sweet, apple, some bread, light grassy, minimal bitterness. Light body.

Clear yellow color, short white head. Dusty aroma of grass, hay, some hop. Taste is a bit skunky, bitter, hay. Watery palate.
