Brutal Brewing Pistonhead Full Amber

Brutal Brewing Pistonhead Full Amber

Filtered

The taste is aromatic hops with a well balanced strong malt fullness and a marked bitterness. The distinct hop aroma derived from American aroma hop varieties Cascade , Citra and Centennial, giving its expression in an aromatic fruity and grapefruit tint.

3.1 Copenhagen 17/5 2019. 33 cl can from Meny, Borups Allé, Frb. F. Golden can with Brutal Brewings usual Mexican Skull in flames. Ghost Rider comes to mind. Pours clear, dark amber with medium-sized off-white head. Settles as thin layer of foam unable to cover the surface of the beer. Clings to the side of the glass. No lacing. Aroma is sweet, lightly roasted and with some subdued citric notes. Caramel, roasted malts. Light citrus and lime rummaging in the background. Light carbonation. Slightly thick, lightly prickly texture. Flavor has strong malty sweetness. Followed by a moderate citric bitterness. Aftertaste is lightly bitter with a sweet undercurrent. Finish is semi-dry. Quite nice Amber Lager which manages to balance the heavy malty profile with a modest but notable citric bitterness.
3.2 Can. BBE Jun 2019; Drank Apr 2019 - Clear amber gold with a good creamy off-white head. Malty; toasty malts, bready, grainy, caramel. Hoppy; piney hops. Fruity; grapefruit citrus. Quite dry. Sweet-bitter toasty malts piney hops citrus fruity throughout. Drinkable. (2019-04)
4.0 Pours a beautiful, deep amber with a slight off-white head. Very good carbonation, but head is a bit fluffy. Rich sweetness, with a dry and slightly bitter finish. Not sugary on the lips, but medium bodied. This is a very fine specimen of the ‘classic’ vienna-malt style beer. I would always order at least one of these and would pick a restaurant that has this on tap over others. Highly recomended.
3.3 Can from Tesco. Dark amber appearance with creamy white head. Aroma is malty, wheat and earthy. Flavour is sweet, bitter, caramel, slightly roasted.

3.4 Can. Rich dark amber with a thick offwhite yellowish head. Nose is hoppy, with lemon and grapefruit with a malt heaviness. In the mouth, there's toffee, with more grapefruit cutting through. A full, decent brew.

5.0 Tapp. En mycket god öl helt enkelt! Vacker bärnstenston, bra maltig arom med en lång och njutbar eftersmak. Bra sötma.
3.1 Tap @ welcome hotel J�rf�lla. Poured deep amber color with a thick white head. First mild funky notes in aroma. Later more caramel, toffee, hops. Flavor has caramel, fudge, hops and light bitterness. Overall ok, might be the tap is a bit dirty?
3.5 Mörk bärnstensfärgad med fint beige skum. Doftar maltigt, lite fruktigt och toffé. Smaken fyllig, lite besk och fruktig. Eftersmaken lång, ganska söt med en del beska.

3.0 Deep amber with an off-white head and lots of gentle, frothy fizz. Nice toffee and marmalade up front, but then the light pine and metal afterwards don't really go. Sweetish with a mild bitterness. Undecided on whether I like this or not.
2.6 Can. Pours hazy copper brown with airy but stable off-white head. Clear aroma of malt and fruit, with notes of caramel and touches of hops. Sweetish flavour of caramel malt and yeast, with bitter touches of hops. Bitterish and bready aftertaste. Drinkable but not my pint of beer.
3.2 Can, 6.0%. Malty aroma, slightly farty like a decent brown ale. Almost clear amber colour. Small stable off-white head. The flavour is malty, slightly spicy with a teaish hop finish. Caramelly and toasty maltiness in the finish as well.
3.3 Decent beer
3.0 330ml can from Tesco. Medium amber pour, small foamy head. Floral, handsoap aroma, sweet grains. Taste is more malts, sweet, floral hops. Seems a bit off.
3.3 330ml can thanks to stevoj pours out a crisp copper color topped with a sand head. Nose is soap grain and corn flakes. Taste is more of the light grain cereal and perfume.
4.0 Delicious - got mine in a mini can and the quality and drinkability was superb. Also, rated highly on the belch factor (tad too gassy) I’ll buy it again
3.3 Boks fra "Tesco på hjørnet" i Manchester. Drukket på rom 608 Premier Inn Manchester City Centre. Amber. Middels høyt skum som daler sakte. Lett fruktaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken malt & frukt. God balanse. Lett søt, sherryaktig ettersmak.
3.3 From the local coop store. Pours dark brown with a thin head. Not much like a lager , more like a dark bitter. Nice citrus and hop taste. Full bodied , chunky and chewy.
3.5 Can from Sainsbury's. Fresh hop aroma, taste is enjoyable bitter pine, a hint of citrus and some alcohol in the finish. Nice.
