Brewed in collaboration with Oberlin & Gift Horse restaurants.

Made with a combination of local & regional heirloom corn from Freedom Food Farms & Maine Grains.

Aromas of grapefruit juice and raspberries spill out of the glass, giving way to subtle cornmeal notes. It drinks bright and crisp with a nice effervescent carbonation that balances nicely with a herbaceous/floral bitterness that gives way to flavors of cornmeal, red berries and currants.

It pours a very light golden color, tight half inch of white foam. It's just about crystal clear.

The brewer's notes make some weird claims about aromas of grapefruit juice and raspberries...yeah, no. I get pretty typical pilsner aromas - with some overlay of corn bread. Lemony, slightly spicy, a bitbof grapefruit zest.. On tap a few hours ago and in the can, I'm not finding anything resembling berries.

The taste is a bit heavy for a pilsner, but it checks the right boxes. Slightly sweet in a cornbread way, bright lemon citrus, spicy hops accumulates, but not too heavy. Peppery notes emerge at the end. Mildly bitter, the flavor lingers a bit. Hop expression is in the realm of traditional Noble hops.

Feel...well, when cold I didn't notice it but as it warms I am getting a little bit of a
pasty feel that coast the tongue. I think it drags down the otherwise bright flavors. I don't know what they used in the grist beyond the regional corn they are bragging on,

Other than the nitpicky but annoying mouthfeel thing, I think this is a pretty good beer. Slightly better on tap than in the can, and definitely prefer it on the colder side. It has plenty of good flavor.
