Pros: Delicious Dutch lager is more hoppy than Heineken, it's better known fellow countrymen. Cons: Green bottles!
When most people think of Dutch pilsner, most of them think of Heineken. At least those who know Heineken is Dutch and a pilsner do anyway. There’s much more to Dutch beer than Heineken, of course, including delicious Trappist ales like La Trappe,...
Pros: Easy Drinkability Cons: Somewhat Unpleasant Smell; Doesn't Hold its Head Very Long
Grolsch is a popular import beer, brewed in the Netherlands. It has been around for a long time. This beer was first brewed in 1615 and it continues to be one of the top import beers from Europe.
Pros: Hoppy, but with a lighter, drier body than Urquell Cons: Whoops! Looks like my glass runneth dry!
I must be some kind of heretic for doing it, but I actually bought a case of Grolsch in 12 ounce bottles -- not in the infamous ceramic swing-tops (though I have had on again, off again love affairs with them for homebrewing purposes). Bottles aside, ...
Pros: A good, refreshing, thirst quencher Cons: Not the most interesting beer in the world
I remember the days when Grolsch was one of the few foreign beers that were readily available in the UK. There was something vaguely exotic about it with the embossed bottles and swing-top lids. Of course, in those days, drinking beer for me and...
Here we go, my second beer review… like the first, I really don’t have much idea what to say, but here goes anyway… Grolsch Premium Lager is a Dutch beer, and apparently they’ve been brewing it since 1615, which means that it’s got to be pretty ...
Pros: A really good Dutch lager Cons: green bottles
Grolsche is a Dutch brewery which is really beginning to grow in stature and reputation. It was a relatively small brewery until a couple decades ago. It was founded in the town of Groelno, Holland back in 1615. They now have a larger...
Pros: The genuine import is fairly pleasant Cons: The brewed under license isn't
Who remembers the end of the 1980's? In the UK the boy band scene was getting going with one of the weakest pop-groups ever - 'Bros' who wore jeans and Dr Marten boots... Hang on a minute you say what's this got to do with beer? Well those DM...
Pros: nicely hopped lager taste Cons: risk of light damage due to green bottle
Back in the days I went to college, I managed to drink some amazing swill that some breweries labeled as beer. Then as I reached my senior year, I started to wise up a bit. One bar in our lovely college town in Wisconsin was called the Brass Rail. Bless...
Pros: Fine texture taste and characteristics. Well endowed with muscle & controllability. Cons: Limitations on use. Packaging is poor.
I’ve never contemplated writing a beer, spirit or wine review, but because a green bottle lies beside me, it is quite handy. I was given a 24 pack of Grolsch Premium Lager about two weeks ago, and so far have downed (drunk) 22 bottles. I’ve become to...
Pros: Very strong body with full flavors Cons: Name, green bottle
Let's face it: naming their beer "Grolsch" may not have been the smartest move that this brewery could have made. I mean honestly, when you are perusing the beer aisle and you run across the name "Grolsch," does it make you smile and...
Pros: classic taste, classic bottle, a nice treat Cons: hard to find -- but available
Water, malted barley, hops... combined to form an almost perfect beer.
This is a wonderful, hoppy lager that smacks of a German Pilsener. It has a slight, bitter bite and “real beer” taste that you wished that some American beers had....
Pros: Immense flavor, great flavor and consistency. Cons: Expensive, even for an import
Grolsch has long had the reputation of being a producer of top quality beers from Holland, but the main reason that you may remember Grolsch is not some elaborate advertising campaign, it's probably because of the quirky looking bottle with the flip top...
Pros: A respectable lager: the bottling details. Cons: Teetering on overcommercialization
Although my taste in beers runs toward the weisse, ales and bocks, Grolsch is a very respectable lager that manages to retain it's integrity in the face of near overcommercialization.
I think that the traditional long necked, porcelain...
Introduction Grolsch has to be my favorite lager out there right now. Everything about it seems to impress me. From the taste, to the appearance, to the low price, it always seems to check out. Time and time again, I will always ask for Grolsch ...
Grolsch Premium Lager - 15.2oz - Swing Top Famous worldwide for its distinctive taste and packaging, Grolsch Premium Lager was chosen three consecutive years as the World's Best Beer in the Pal...
