Trail is our German-style Pilsner. Featuring floor-malted barley and carefully selected European noble hops, Trail is lagered for an extended period of time. The resulting beer is crisp, snappy, and robustly flavored such that you can easily imagine enjoying it in the German countryside.

750mL growler filled and drunk 1/30/16.
Lightly-to-moderately hazy, well-carbonated, gold leaf-colored body is topped by an off-white head that shows moderate to strong retention (ours was nowhere near as hazy as the pictured beer here).
All sorts of flower notes burst forth in the nose, with delicate honey and light white bread in the background. Dried herbs, lemon and mint all make an appearance and there are no flaws or alcohol.
Heavily floral flavor has light bitterness, mild lemon and honey with a bready feel to it and moderate, fairly tight carbonation. Doesn’t have the ultra-crisp, dried herb and baked bread bite to it, but rather feels more akin to a wet hop pale ale or something of that nature. Definitely dextrinous and with a bit of oiliness/soapiness. A lot of room to maneuver, though, with the name pilsner these days, especially in America. Whatever it is, the flavors are delightful, fresh, buoyant and the beer is well-attenuated and highly drinkable. I very much disagree that the heavy floral/perfumey nature detracts from the drinkability.
