A recreation of a historical beer style "American Pilsner". It's roots date back to 1800s when German immigrants brought traditional pilsner brewing style to America.
Our interpretation of the style is a bit more corny, in a good way! The unusually high percentage of flaked corn provides a beautiful and complex sweetness that balances with the Czech Saaz hop’s bitterness
Fermented low and slow with a lager yeast strain and lagered for 3 whole months as every traditional lager should, ensures that you will be tasting your first lager. The taste and aroma is complex and fascinating.

Bottle picked up from Kostas and the Kykao Brewery, Patras, Greece and consumed at home Sunday 4th October 2020 listening to Aldous Harding - Designer, cooking fried potatoes and frying chicken. Light hazy gold with a white head, cereal notes and a little pondweed, some sweetness, light crisp bite, dry finish.
