Light gold color. Hoppy aromas and flavors of mango, orange oil, hints of dried pineapple, and pulque with a supple, crisp, finely carbonated, light body and a smooth, amusing, medium-length finish evoking nuances of hints of brazil nut, cane syrup, and fluffy white bread. A new school hopped pilsner with big tropical notes.

About

Pilsner

Pilsners are pale to golden straw in color and range in alcohol from 4.5-6%. The hallmark of a fresh pilsner is a dense, white head. The alcohol levels must be such as to give a rounded mouthfeel. These beers are medium-bodied and are characterized by high carbonation and tangy Czech and German varieties of hops that impart floral aromas and a crisp, bitter finish. This style originated in Bohemia in the Czech Republic. German pilsner styles are similar, though often slightly lighter in body and color. Noteworthy examples of this style include: Pilsner Urquell, Paulaner Premium Pils, Brooklyn Brewery Brooklyn Pilsner and Victory Prima Pils.
