\"\"What I\u2019ve been doing every single day is that right before I pull the day\u2019s can out of the fridge, I pull the next day\u2019s can out of the box, to prepare it for the next day.\u00a0 I try my best to not look at the can when I\u2019m doing such, because as has been the routine, I like to be surprised when I pull it out of the fridge.\u00a0 However, when I pulled this can out of the box yesterday, it was impossible to not notice the lime green color all over the can, and I was wondering if they had just snuck a tallboy of fucking Surge<\/a> into the box.\u00a0 Frankly, that wouldn\u2019t be the worst thing in the world, but I knew I was getting a lime green-ass can tonight.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anyway, so when I retrieved the can today, I looked quizzically at the design of the can.\u00a0 First, I quickly identified that it was a pilsner, mostly because it\u2019s listed on the bottom of the can, but then I couldn\u2019t help but notice that they\u2019ve basically put Shipwreck<\/a> from GI Joe<\/em> on the can itself for some reason, and I\u2019m just sitting there with this wtf look on my face.<\/span><\/p>\n

Typically, when I see something short-called \u201cPils,\u201d it makes me think of Sam Adams\u2019 Noble Pils, which is one of my more preferred beers in spite of the hoppiness of it.\u00a0 I normally equate pilsners that identify themselves with lots of hops as IPAs and I think I\u2019ve made clear how I feel about IPAs, but after stuff like Noble Pils and bier #6 Turbo Prop, I\u2019m in this gray area of love and hate with some of them.\u00a0 But seeing as how I\u2019ve been determined to have at least one quality beer with the days remaining, out of my das boot, I was skeptical that I\u2019d be relying on the final day of the calendar to hope to get something particularly good.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shipwreck Pils<\/a> doesn\u2019t have a lot of aroma, pours very light, and looks every bit like a classic pilsner.\u00a0 The first sip is immediately satisfying, but there\u2019s a little bit of an odd finish at the end that negates a lot of the good will set by the first taste.\u00a0 Overall, it\u2019s an okay bier, that I think sits firmly in the middle of the pack as far as all of the Deutsch beers are concerned.\u00a0 There have been many better, but at the same time, there have been several that have been decidedly worse than this one.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is a bier that I could easily see myself having several of them, but that\u2019s if someone else were paying for them provided I were drinking Shipwreck Pils only.\u00a0 If it were on my own euro, I\u2019d probably be seeking out something else, like a dunkel or a weizen, but for what it\u2019s worth, this wasn\u2019t bad at all.\u00a0 If it means anything at all, of the three beers I\u2019ve drinken out of my boot, this has been the best one.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tomorrow marks the final day of the advent calendar, and I\u2019ve already seen the color of the can, but know nothing else.\u00a0 I really hope the box saved one of the best for last, but regardless, this has been a fun little exercise, and excuse to write daily.<\/span><\/p>\n
