Steeped in tradition, yet ready for anything—that pretty much sums up our Southern Gothic Unfiltered Pils. This hop-forward but light-bodied pilsner is crisp and drinkable, perfect for an afternoon on the porch or a night down at the pub. We left it unfiltered and raw to bring out its complexity and add a depth of flavor.

Can. I was extremely disappointed in this beer. All you can taste is hop bitterness and water and nothing else.

Can @ Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury. Pours misty gold, expected a little more haze from an unfiltered lager, large fluffy white crown. Aroma presents a familiar lager malt sweetness. Taste is as expected, crisp and gently sweet, some floral hop, drying close. Decent.
