A Czech-style pilsner with an American heart? Says who? We do! This medium- to light-bodied pils is crafted from traditionally floor-malted heirloom Czech barley varieties, and speciality malts to impart a traditional flavor. Here’s the delightful twist: in addition to classic dankness from Czech Saaz hops, we use American Talus hops which give a citrus and floral burst of flavor. The result is this perfect blend of velvety smooth bitterness that’s typical of a pils, with a uniquely American twist.

From keg at the brewery. Poured hazy, unclear golden color, thin white head. Grainy maltyness, fair amount of sweetness and some fruitiness. No Saaz detected. This twist did not for for me.
