German Style Pils … pours light golden in color with a fluffy white head. True to style, it is brewed using European Pilsner & CaraPils malts resulting in just enough body to balance the hoppiness.
Our German style Pils is brewed with European Pilsner malt using a traditional step infusion mash. During the boil it is hopped using German Tettanang & Spalt Select. After the boil it rests in our copper Coolship for one hour and is then transferred over our baudelot cooler. It undergoes a cool open fermentation for 9 days using a classic Pilsner yeast. It is cellared cold for several months prior to packaging.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: clear yellow in color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: clean biscuity/bready malts with floral and grassy hops
Flavor: blends the previously noted aromas to a fine sweet to hoppy sweet quality; finishes malty to semi-floral sweet
Texture: light bodied, sessionable; pretty smooth along the tongue
Overall: a nicely done lager I would have again, and I believe leans towards the German side, I think...yes, a German one.

Can, undated, drunk 2/22/24. Clear bronze-brass-golden. Small-to-medium, white head, moderate-to-strong retention. Grassy, lightly floral nose with biscuity malts dabbed with traces of honey. There's a big earthiness, almost a light cellar mustiness that I must admit I love, despite it probably not really belonging in a pilsner (though, who the hell cares, honestly). Must be coolship-derived. Maybe a bit grassy, as well, but it's clean, malty and interesting. Sharp grass and a surprisingly thin body with an almost wheat-like nuttiness and huge biscuit notes. The earthy/mustiness is there, as well. There's a bit of reprieve of malt on the finish, but the thin biscuit and sharp grass up front really puts a damper on the whole thing. Maybe let's get this thing decoction mashed and then close-fermented after the coolship step, and maybe ease off on the bittering addition of the hops. Man, even onceblind gave this thing a 3.5!

Pours slightly hazed yellow into a shaker. White head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Hay aromas. Crisp with lemon meringue and straw upfront turning to herbal tea in the dry, medium length finish.

Wurstbar on Lukr: pours golden with a white head. Aroma is grassy, lemony, herbal. Taste is crisp, lightly bitter. Pleasant.
