The finest German malt, American hops and Lake Superior water collide to create our take on the worlds most popular Style. As crisp and refreshing as the Great lakes, this beer is a nod to European tradition with a distinct American disobedience. Prost, Eh!

Can from Holiday Market. Pours a clear yellow gold with a full finger of white foam that lingers. Bready malts with some light crackery malts on the nose as well as grass and peppercorn aromas. Smooth with a nice peppery, grassy bite on the palate. Lingering bitterness on the finish in a lighter bodied pils. Very enjoyable.

12 ounce can into lager glass; no can dating, but is a recent release. Pours slightly hazy golden straw color with a 1-2 finger dense and fluffy white head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings down the glass, with a moderate amount of streaming carbonation retaining the head. Aromas of lemon, orange zest, cracker, bread, light honey, light pepper, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Very nice aromas with good balance of pale malt and citrus/earthy hop notes; with good strength. Taste of lemon, orange zest, cracker, bread, light honey, light pepper, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Light-moderate pine/herbal/spicy bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of lemon, orange, cracker, bread, herbal, and floral/grassy earthiness. Damn nice robustness and balance of pale malt and citrus/earthy hop flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Moderate dryness from bitterness as well. Very clean on lager flavors with zero yeast ester notes present. Medium carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, crisp, and lightly grainy/bready/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with zero warming present after the finish. Overall this is an excellent German Pilsner style! All around great robustness and balance of pale malt and citrus/earthy hop flavors; and very smooth, crisp, and clean to drink. A very enjoyable offering.
