The Classic from Calgary’s The Establishment Brewing Company is a masterclass in restraint and technical brewing. While Establishment is often celebrated for their complex barrel-aged sours and hazy IPAs, Classic represents their "brewer’s beer"—a clean, crisp, and flawlessly executed European-style Pale Lager. It is designed to be the ultimate everyday beer, providing a sophisticated alternative to macro-lagers by using premium ingredients and traditional lagering methods.
Beer Description
This lager pours a brilliant, crystal-clear pale straw-gold with a tight, creamy white head and fine, persistent carbonation.
Aroma: It features a delicate and refined nose. Expect clean scents of fresh-baked crackers and light honey from the malt, perfectly balanced by the herbal, floral, and slightly spicy notes of noble hops.
Palate: On the tongue, it is light-bodied and exceptionally crisp. It leads with a subtle, grainy malt sweetness that is immediately followed by a snappy, refreshing dryness. The mouthfeel is smooth and "soft" (thanks to meticulous water chemistry), finishing with a clean, short-lived bitterness that invites another sip.
Profile: It has a highly sessionable ABV of 4.8% and a low bitterness of 20 IBU, prioritizing balance and maximum "crushability."
Technical Notes: This beer is a labor of time and patience. It is brewed with 100% German pilsner malt and hopped with traditional Hallertau Mittelfrüh noble hops. It undergoes a long, cold lagering period (often six weeks or more) to ensure total clarity and a clean fermentation profile, free of any heavy esters or off-flavors.
