Pumped to see Trillium put out more styles at sessionable ABVs. Gorgeous beer - sparkling clarity, honey hue with a puffy white head.
Hard to distinguish the Alphra, Bravo and Charlie unless you do a side-by-side. For my tastes each brings a biscuity, breath and grassy profile with the latter category being he differentiator.
Alpha had less of a grassy kick,
more balance and a light floral element which I enjoyed.
Crisp and eminently drinkable. Slightly watery on the backend. Doesn’t have that Czech or German malty kiss. Cheers!

On tap at Trillium Brewing in Canton, MA.
This one pours the lightest of the trio of pilsners, with a light straw gold appearance, a small head, and lots of lacing.
This smells like fancy crackers and rustic crusty bread, with a light grassy hoppiness.
This is probably the second best of the new pilsner series. I want a bit more hoppy bitterness, but it's got the most interesting malt character of them all, so crusty and bready and rich. There's a small touch of sweetness, and a nice herbal character.
This is light bodied, and very crisp and clean, with no outward glaring flaws.
This is super great, especially considering it's Trillium first stab at the pilsner style.
