Brewed in commemoration of the Brick's 20th anniversary, and in a limited release of 2591 -1.5 liter magnum champagne bottles. This special pilsner is brewed in the authentic European style and uses Hallertau and Saaz hops, 2 row Canadian barley and the famous Formosa Springs water. "This is a great beer, brewed in the style of the world's greatest lagers" says Jim Brickman.
Beer Ratings and Reviews:
[1] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/23/2005 3:00:51 PM)
"Cracked open a 1.5 liter magnum...this was a struggle as the cork was set dry. Poured a light gold with medioum carbonation...small bubbled effervescence. Wonderful 2 finger frothy cap with good retention and nice lacing (bravo Brick we knew ya could do it). Aroma is all floral hopping with understated bready-sweet malt where the hop mix spells "Urquell". Medium-light mouth feel.....light, bready malts are balanced well with the sharp spicy-dry hopping.....finishes clean with slight drying...very drinkable and certainly true to the style....one of the best Canadian made pilsners I have tasted yet....puts Steam Whistle and it’s ilk on notice.
