Inspiration for beer
It’s no secret that we love Pilsners. We also love West Coast IPAs. Why not combine the two? Drinks crisp and clean with big, balanced hop aromas.
What sets this beer apart? What’s notable?
We start with exclusively premium German Pilsner Malt and go through a traditional step mash (like we do for all our lagers) to bring out the subtle complexities of the malt. A generous dose of American hops were added late in the boil. Fermented low and slow with our house lager yeast, we then dry hopped with some our favourite American hops: Amarillo, Citra, and Idaho 7 (the Germans would be appalled!). It was then lagered (conditioned cold) to maximize the crispiness.
Tasting Notes
Crisp and cold. Cereal honey sweetness is balanced by bright bergamot and marmalade aromas.
