BRAHMA CHOPP PREMIUM LAGER

Musty, ill-defined, grain-based straw-yellowed pale lager backs strong malt liquor aroma with sour yeast astringency. Reminiscent of bland middle of the road Czech beer, but too watery and soapy to be halfway assertive. Though lacking maintained corn-sugared finish, its grassy hop fizz will draw novices and blue collar fans alike. Cheap lawnmower fare.

GROLSCH PREMIUM LAGER

Disguised as a dry lager in America since pilsner designation is deemed light and watery, golden-hued hop-infested medium body is similar to Dutch competitor Heineken with its musty aromatic pungency and prolonged bitter-grained finish. Yet Grolsch has saltier bitterness, sharper Bavarian grain perkiness, and oft-times malt liquor-like strength.
