BEER<\/span>: Lobster Lovers Beers<\/span><\/p>\n

Ah, Lobster Lovers Beer, crafted by our foreign friends at Rinku\u00c5\u00a1kiu Alaus Darykla, the makers of such wonderful-sounding brews as Uosto, Bir\u00c5\u00beie\u00c4\u008diu, \u00c5\u00bdaibo, and Werewolf. Entirely unfamiliar with the rich Lithuanian language, I can only attempt a guess as to their exact meaning. For all I know, it could be Cat, Movie, Peanut, and Werewolf. While Rinku\u00c5\u00a1kiu pumps out over ten different offerings year-round, you only have two real options:<\/p>\n

-European Pale Lager
\n-European Strong Lager<\/p>\n

Here’s a snippet of information from their website (translated by Google):<\/p>\n

“Rinku\u00c5\u00a1kiai beer is natural. Only pure high quality water, original yeast, hops and traditional light malt is used for production. For some brands caramel malt is used. No pees, rice and other non-malt products are used for Rinku\u00c5\u00a1kiai beer production. All Rinkuskiai beer brands produced individual way, using natural fermentation process, after fermentation no additional water.”<\/p>\n

No pees! Whew, that’s a huge relief.<\/p>\n

With its bright, crystal clear golden body, its tall, creamy white head, and gentle effervescence, the beer does genuinely look pleasant. The aroma reveals a sweet-smelling pale malt scent with fruity apple and pungent floral hop notes. This carries through into the flavor with a dialed up sweetness, a particularly pungent alcohol presence, and a faint hint of citrus. All in all, it’s about what you’d expect from a Euro Strong, no more, no less. By the way, for me, many of these strong European lagers seem more akin to America’s own brown-bagged malt liquors.<\/p>\n

While lobster is most definitely a food I could eat every day, the thought of a Lobster Lovers Beer every single goddamn day presents a future both grim and cheerless and one which I’d fight to prevent with John Connor-styled fierceness.<\/p>\n
