Portuguese tavern-style plates with punchy flavours complement the brews
Like many up-and-comers, True History started out as a contract brewery, commissioning its recipes out to a partner facility. With the opening of its first stand-alone location, it now has its own set-up for cranking out the clean, golden German- and Czech-style pilsners and pale ales it’s known for. The tight menu—currently, there are four beers on tap—is set to expand over time but promises to play within True History’s tidy, easy-drinking style.
On the left is a standard American-style beer faucet; on the right, a Czech side-pull faucet. It’s not just a stylistic difference: the former is an on-or-off affair, but the latter has a flow control lever that yields a smooth, creamy foam vastly different from the drier foam you get with a typical tap. It’s essential for creating a mlíko, or a pour made up mostly of foam—more on that later.
Left to right, we have the Long Lunch, Whole Menu Twice and Vermont Honk. Long Lunch is a malty, dry-hopped pale ale; Whole Menu Twice is a classic northern German style pilsner; Vermont Honk is a hazy east-coast-style pale ale with subtle hop and fruit-forward notes. The generous head on the pilsner is characteristic of the classic Czech hladinka pour, which keeps the beer fresh under a flavourful seal of dense, creamy foam. $8 for the pale ales, $8.25 for the pilsner.
