New Belgium Brewing Co Blue Paddle Pilsener Lager
This is New Belgium week!
Brewed in Fort Collins, CO, USA bought at H E B Grocery, Houston, TX, drunk at home in Katy, TX cooking dinner of stuffed chicken breasts, beans and sauted brocolli and mushrooms.
The bottle says "Blue Paddle Pilsener Lager crafted with malt-only brewing and noble hops (one day I'll find out why some hops are noble and others are not - must be something in their upbringing), explores the boundaries where American lagers seldom journey.
Reflective of Europes finest pilseners, Blue Paddle delivers a refreshing bitterness, vibrant finish, and a subtle but intricate depth of flavor."
Despite the copy writers hyperbole, the description of the beer's taste is accurate. I enjoyed the slight bitterness and the crisp taste as the cooks aperitif.
