Our Yuzu Pilsner is brewed with Pilsner & CaraPils malts using a step infusion mash. The yuzu juice is added during the boil alongside the aroma hops. After the boil it rests in our copper coolship for 1 hour prior to undergoing a cool open fermentation using a classic lager yeast.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to becher glass.
Appearance: glossy yellow color with a sly transparency about it and a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: citrusy, floral and some citrusy rind bitterness with a light white pepper tone to it with some light clean malts; yuzu juice? I think it seems to come and go
Flavor: slightly bitter then gently leads into some bittersweet through the prior noted aromas: finishes clean and citrusy with a touch of floral
Texture: light bodied; sessionable; clear smoothness along the tongue
Overall: so the yuzu juice was more or less really just in the aroma? well, alrighty then, I thought there would be more of it but man oh man, boy was I wrong.

Undated can drunk 7/15/23. Hint of haze. Bronze-copper. Small, white head quickly to ring. Honey, white bread, mild citrus and floral-herbal hops. Clean, malty. Soft, malty, though kind of caramel-heavy. Weird. A bit sluggish in texture with sort of loose carbonation. Not loving this caramel flavor either. Rather low bitterness doesn't help.

First Pils of the month. Light fruity colored gold. And an ok white sudsy head. Nose is fruity and grassy. Tastes of light yuzu but not overly, some sugars, grass, hay, floral and melon. Light bodied and touch slick.
