Wintery visions of snow covered evergreen trees come to mind whilst sipping on this crisp lager. Spruce tips are the bright green new growth on the ends of the trees branches that are known for their piney-citrus flavor and are high in Vitamin C. We had these tips plucked from the wilds of Montana for use in this once-a-year seasonal beer. We used a neutral, slightly sweet malt bill as a backdrop for the piney flavors as well as some complimentary Cascade and Simcoe hops. BRRRRR!!!! But also yum!
