BEER:
Prodigal Pils German Pilsner - 4.00
Clean and refreshing lager; hint of hop bitterness in the finish; highly drinkable
Proper Geordie English Mild -4.25
Medium-bodied ale; not aggressively hopped; super silky smooth
Edelweiss Vienna Lager -3.50
Sweet and malty, according to style; caramel malt character essential, could use even more
Theodorus Dunkles Lager -2.00
Amber appearance; sweet and malty character, totally lacking roasty aspects necessary for a proper dunkel
Bread of Life Doppelbock -4.00
Big and malty bock beer; needs more roasted malt; alcohol kick not huge, but sadly noticeable
