Commercial Description:
Unfiltered bottle.
Ingredients: Water, Barely Malt, Hops, Yeast.
Christoffel Blond is a bottom fermented golden-coloured beer with a full body, a very balanced taste and a beautiful bitterness due to a generous addition of fresh hop during the brewing-process. The aroma is fruity and has a fresh taste with a pleasant, hoppy finish.

Orange gold body. Large, frothy white cream. Immense nose hints of spicy fresh hops and bright fruit. Hop flavor is mind-blowingly intricate. Peppery, spicy, super fruity, herbal, fresh. Very noble-like, but great utilization. Brilliant lager!

Maybe I should have this beer in Denmark. It was so oxidized, the taste was extremely compromised.

overflows when i open the bottle. after a resonable wait, it pours hazy amber, big rocky head, decent lacing. aroma of malt with a bit of mustiness. flavor seems floral and mild vegetable. medium bodied, dry finish. i do not get a lot of hops in this one. not very exciting. single bottle from binnys beverage depot in orland park.

(Bottle). Semi-sweet aroma, very piney with some spicey fruitiness. Cloudy yellow-orange body, huge creamy white head. Flavor begins slightly sweet, with tart fruit, then transitions into delicious hoppy bitterness which persists throughout a lingering finish. A super lager.

In short: A fantastic pilsner with all the characteristics of a fresh draught bohemian pilsner.
How: Bottle 330ml flip-top. Consumed fresh as soon as I received through private importation
The look: Cloudy dark blonde body topped by a large white head with good retention
In long: Nose is noble grassy hops and meringue. Tasty cereals, light honeyed sweetness quickly taken over by the dry and slightly spicy grassy hops. Dry wood notes. Bready yeast or bready malts, I don’t know but bready something. Body is smooth and chewy and the carbonation is very lively. I’ve pub-crawled in Czech Republic and I find the Christoffel to be the most authentic Czech draft Bohemian Pilenser that I’ve had in the comfort of my home. And the beer is not from Czech Republic, it’s not draft and it’s officially not even a Bohemian Pilsner. WTF? Ok, maybe I also find Taco Bell’s to be the most authentic typical Mexican homemade food.
