Squatters Provo Girl Pilsner

Brewed by Salt Lake Brewing Company / Squatters Pub
Style: Pilsener
Salt Lake City, Utah USA

Beers with buxom babaes emblazoned on bottles might attract some, but I was far more surprised that this was actually okay. Personally I’ll go for something even more crisp and with a sharper hop bite in the finish, but this was pretty clean and totally tolerable. Thanks to my gf’s sister for being so kind as to bring a mixed 6pk back.

I think there is something to be said for a beer that essentially acts as a higher-class substitute for a regular domestic lager. Remember, this is Utah.

Pours a clear pale yellow. Vague aroma, but it was from a tiny sampler glass, so who knows if the beer can be blamed. Bread, corn, and a slight tingly hop character, but there’s a penetrating "bad lager" character that marrs the experience. Finishes with slight roast and wood. Pretty blah.

Clear pale yellow. Ever so faint hops aroma and flavor. Smooth, citrusy carbonation. An OK "utah beer".

From my west coast connection sampled with Stegosaurus. Nothing great here, just another rating basically. Boring pale pour with a fizzy white head. Aroma of watered down hops, the flavor is typical pilsner with some bitterness.

Bottle. Lemony initial scent. Mildue-like flat head. Carboneated fizz. Nothing distinctive. Goes down and hopefully doesn’t come back up.

Smells a little bit funky. A light taste, doesn’t seem that hopped. Not that good, but decent. Had this an the Full Suspension on tap at the Zion Noodle Company in Springdale.

Bottle sampled with Beerded_one, from his west coast connection. Pours pale golden with a decent sized white head. Aroma of hops and citrus. Flavor is smooth, slight bitter hops and citrus. Decent body, decent brew.
