Mythos Brewing's Mythos Hellenic Lager

When at a Greek restaurant, do as the Greeks do, right? Not anymore I won't.

No idea how this one pours, since I had it straight from the bottle. And I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I classify this one as a pilsner. But it may be within the type for a Euro Golden as well, it was difficult to pin it down. It had the moderate bitterness and sweet malt that both types have, but I got alternating hits of cardboard bitterness from a Golden and funk from a pilsner. More Czech than German, I think, because the malt wasn't as sweet as a German pils.

All in all a weird one. To be expected from a company that owns Carlsberg, I guess. I still say pilsner, but honestly, who knows.
