Fresh Hop Pilsner
Brewed in celebration of the once-a-year BC hop harvest with hundreds of pounds of fresh Chinook Hops from Myrtle Meadows including a dry hop of freshly pelletized Chinook. Fermented with our house lager yeast for a clean, crisp and refreshing finish allowing the hops to shine.

It’s gold and bright, medium head. Lots of bitterness though it is a bit grassy. Big pale malt. It’s good but maybe chinook pilsner isn’t the most amazing thing.

On tap at Luppolo. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Nose is fairly light with only a faint, generic fresh hop character. Flavour has a nice bitter hop profile, lots of pine, not as much woodiness as I'd expect from Chinook, and a pale malt base. It's a fine West Coast pilsner, but as a Chinook fresh hop I would have liked a bit more.

On tap at Luppolo, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma is pretty laid-back—can’t say I get much Chinook—with some fresh doughy notes, not much else. Flavour is likewise full of fresh doughy notes, finishing with a pronounced lingering bitterness. Chinook is one of my favourite hops, so I’m disappointed I don’t get its characteristic woody pine expression, but this is still reasonably constructed. Decent.
