German pilsner is characteristically dry and hoppy with a nice background bitterness. Ours is a classic example of the style brewed with Pilsner malt and hopped with Saphir and Spalt Select.

Slightly hazy for a pilsner, nose is not quite as Banana-centric as most Pils' that I've had are. Mouth feel is lovely though, really smooth and not too astringent.
