Brouhaha Maleny Lager

This isn’t one of Brouhaha’s popular hop bombs or fruit-and-yoghurt sours. This is a golden, clear, clean Czech-style pilsner – and it’s a beauty.

Lager is generally seen as a warm weather drink in Australia, but Maleny Lager has enough depth of flavour to make it an equally good choice on a cool evening in the Sunny Coast hinterland. Subtle grain character; mild sweetness; noticeable bitterness hovering around the edge of the mouth.

This is everything I’m after in a Czech pils (short of a view of the spire of St Bartholomew’s cathedral).
