Faceless Spreadsheet Ninja

Brewery: Weird Beard Brew Co.
Supplier: Kris Wines

A seasonal brew from Weird Beard, it's a pilsner brewed in honour of their desk jockey, designed and overseen by him. This is a German pilsner brewed with lots of Citrus. I served this chilled.
Appearance: A burnished gold colour. There is a white head but that goes in a matter of seconds leaving behind only a trace
Aroma: Peach and pepper hop notes with a lot of malt.
Flavour: Slight citrus and peach hop notes, not much malt in it but an underlying sweetness. 
Body: Slightly light body, perfect for this type of beer. 
Aftertaste: A slightly unpleasant herbal taste, but that only goes and is replaced with a citrus hop note. There is also a slight note of plastic, not unpleasant though, just a bit odd. 

Overall: Therefore this gets a rating of 5, but only just as there are some odd notes in it.

Price Range: £2.50 for a 330ml can, not bad but not quite worth it for this price.

Food Pairings: Something like a nice light turkey burger with a nice malty bun would be great, not too strong a meat like red meat.
