Undated can drunk 3/20/25.
Clear deep brass. Fluffy, white head.
Yeah, that's rich with mineral, not particularly extra saline that I would guess, but clean and well-lagered with light floral, heavily herbal hops that are dainty and bright. Surprised how much mineral there is and how it doesn't create any blandness whatsoever.
Hoppy and malty with good attenuation and a rich, honey-dense mouthfeel. Again, I wouldn't guess extra calcium carbonate here (obviously) and wouldn't call it highly or extra saline, but it's certainly a lovely mineral character with fresh herbs from the hops and clean, rich, honey-like malt. Lovely stuff.
Sad that beer tickers don't appreciate the greatness of this and other top tier pilsners.
