A focused and lush expression of our house pils. Creamy texture with pronounced notes of earl grey tea and a nice clean snappiness.

Really is very good for a pilsener, but it’s still a pilsener people. Hits the drinkability scale on extra like Seinfeld. Golden pour. Crisp finish with decent bitterness. Tap at Churchkey.

Draught @ Mission Dolores. Clear gilden yellow with off-white foamy head, faint doughy aroma, high carbonation, balanced malty taste, thin body, dry abrupt finish. Very well done, a good example of the genre.

Tap at Shelton Brothers. Soft malt-forward nose with some light grain and light grass. Soft and pillowy mouthfeel, biscuity malt and a touch more grass. Restrained bitterness. Solid pils.

Draught at Armbsy Abbey, 10/6/16.
Clear, straw-golden body is topped by a small, but fairly firm, white head.
Biscuity and bready grains in the nose are refreshing and zesty. Lemony-herbal hops make their way in as well, and a harmonious balance is struck. Lots of sourdough, thyme/oregano character and very clean, with no alcohol. Seems quite dry from the nose, though light honey does break through signifying some remaining base malt.
Well-carbonated with a big sourdough/toasted malt character that is offset somewhat by light honey and dough. Pepper, herbs, crackers and a light mineral character all tickle the palate and the beer is indeed well-attenuated and fairly well-malted. Lots of lemon, herb and maybe just a touch more bready/toasty character than I’d like, but it adds a robustness to it that makes for a bit stronger flavor, which is fine depending on what mood youre in. Still plenty of refreshing qualities to it, as well. I’d like more malt suppleness/softness on the palate, as well.

Canned 4/22/26, drunk 8/11/26.
Rich but seemingly well-attenuated malts show good breadiness and honey but no excess sugariness. The hop is immediately apparent showing woodiness, some spicy herbaceousness and light pepper.
In the mouth it's very deeply textured but still remaining on the drier side. Great treatment of the hops with no aggressive/overly drying/acidic woodiness. Maybe just a touch too burly, not that it's sluggish or syrupy. Just needs a pinch more crispness/levity on the finish. Impressive amount of flavor going on, though.

Growler domed at the cabin in NH. Pours crystal clear yellow-gold with a big, fluffy white head. Nice crispy biscuits in the nose, some straw and hay. Light sweet flavour with crispy pale bread, faint grassy bitterness, more straw and biscuits. Light bodied with average carbonation. Clean on the finish, well balanced, with more lightly dry and crispy biscuits, pale grains and cereal, hay, grass. An outstanding pils.
