The inspiration to Lighthouse Watchman came from Czech style Pils/Lager style beers. Hence the beer is not filtered, apart from cold crashing, which means the beer is chilled down close to freezing before bottling. During this process all the particles sink to the bottom or the fermenting tanks. The non-filtering leads to a nice smooth bready flavor, which wouldn’t be the case if filtered. The more rounded up flavour also makes the beer suit well for food, among others some harder cheeses, spicier food and sea food go really well with this.

330ml bottle from Pien. Batch #3. Pours light golden orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of grassy hops, buttery notes, hay, earthiness and grainy malts. Taste is sweetish, grassy and grainy with some butter, hay and citrus. Finish is sweetish, grainy and grassy with loads of hay, hints of butter and earthiness. Could use some more hoppiness and less buttery notes.

(Bottle, 0.33 l - B/N 03 - BB 28/04/2018, from Pien, 20171012) The beer poured golden and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, fruitiness and mildly grain. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, grain, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was grassy, sweet and bitter. A nice light pils with a little bit too much sweetness.
