Alfa Beer: Review

Athenian Brewery SA
Athens, Greece


5% abv
330ml bottle
$12.99 a six pack

Oh, I just can’t wait to be done reviewing these Lagers and Pilsners.  Drinking flavorful beers while just do you in for going back to plain Jane Lagers.  But, they do serve a purpose – they are refreshing on a hot summer day if you drink them ice cold. 

Appearance: crystal gold body with maybe a one finger white head that disappeared before my eyes; a spot or dot of lacing here or there.


Aroma: oh hum, another lager bouquet; in the bottle a little Euro must smell or green bottle smell; in the glass – sweet grains and grassy hop

Flavors: grainy, light herbal hop and dry grass, multi grain bread, for a Lager pretty good

Mouthfeel: crisp, refreshing, light flavors, light to moderate body, moderate carbonation,

To the Point: once again a typical Lager; average at best as far as Lagers go; refreshing and pleasing on a hot summer day.  Hard to justify the $12.99 a six pack.
