After a trip to Pilsen (Czech Republic) last year, we began a pursuit of reformation and refinement of Mary, our German-style Pilsner. We began lagering a portion of Mary in a single French oak puncheon in our cooler. After nearly two months, the beer was moved to tank and krausened (as is all of our lager) with fresh fermenting beer in order to provide natural carbonation. After nearly 3 months of further conditioning and slow carbonation, we present you with a softened, refined, and elevated representation of Mary.

On tap at FOFA. Pours golden with large creamy white head leaving sticky lacing. The aroma is toasted grain, grass, wheat, straw. Slick body, wheat, straw, biscuit, grain, nice crisp bitter finish, really enjoyed this.

Pours slightly hazy gold into a stein. Impressive bright white head with excellent retention does not recede as beer rises from the bottom. Biscuit and hay aromas. Soft with sourdough, hay and citrus upfront turning to crisp earthy hop in the medium length finish.

Looks like Mary, smells of oatmeal, grass and cream of wheat. flavor is very much the same, it has this chewy texture to it, filling, could still do a liter of this one no problem. better than Mary but not by too much and I think Poetica 2 has this one beat.
