Today, the wife and I went down to Saint Nicholas Church and their very popular Greek Festival. I had a chance to try a bottle of Mythos Beer.
Mythos is a lager in the European style. It's a bright yellow color. I didn't get a chance to pour it in a glass so I can't comment on the head, but my guess is it will be like most other lagers. It had a slightly sweet, bready aroma.
The taste was what I expected. Light, slightly sweet with just a hint of hops on the finish. It's a good lawn mower beer. It's not a bad beer. It's drinkable, but not anything to write home about.
Mythos means legendary. Not so much, I think.
As an aside, I had a taste of Retsina. It's a Greek wine with a bit of pine resin added. Why in God's name anyone would do that is Greek to me. The stuff tasted like paint thinner!
