Review: Forester's Draft

Forester's Draft from Mitchell's Knysna Brewery
Rating: B-

Appearance: yellow tint, dark gold. very small head, no lacing, not an appealing looking beer to be honest.

Smell: interesting! there's something different in this one from the typical lager. apple, grass, and a hint of honey are all present.

Taste: floral with apple and honey notes. this is the second Mitchell's beer I've had and there's definitely some honey flavors in both.

Mouthfeel: a little syrupy for a euro pale lager. carbonation is low, but it works.

Drinkability: different, solid lager. definitely worth trying, although the mouthfeel is a little heavy.
(sampled at the Cape Town location, review entered from notes)

Serving type: on-tap
