Our first fully cold-conditioned lager, and its a pilsner! Old World technique meets New Workd style: with a floor-malted River Bend grain bill and German Mandarina Bavaria & Hallertau Blanc hops this beer was cold conditioned for 6 weeks to give you a refreshing and updated take on the classic style with a New American twist.
Big notes of ripe Bosc pear, baguettes fresh out of the oven, and Sauvignon Blanc on the nose, plus interesting hints if green tea and grass meadows, followed by a mild bitterness with a super zippy, clean finish to round out this Crispy Boi juuust fine!

A: Pours a very slightly hazy pale yellow in color with moderate amounts of active visible carbonation and faint bright yellow + pale golden yellow + straw yellow colored highlights. The beer has a finger tall sudsy foamy bright white head that quickly reduces to a large patch of thin film covering a little more than 95% of the surface of the beer and a thin ring at the edges of the glass. Light amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Just shy of moderate aromas of doughy + cracker malts with a hint of light fruit (pear) sweetness along with light to moderate aromas of grassy + herbal hops. Light aromas of lager yeast and a touch of minerality.
T: Upfront there are just shy of moderate flavors of doughy + cracker malts with a hint of light fruit (pear) sweetness. That is followed by a light flavors of lager yeast and a touch of minerality. Finally there are light to moderate flavors of grassy + herbal hops which impart a light to moderate amount of bitterness which fades away after a fair amount of time leaving a relatively clean finish.
M: Slightly heavier than light bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Crisp with a hint of dryness in the finish.
O: Easy to drink with well hidden alcohol and a wonderfully crisp + refreshing mouthfeel. Enjoyable and a beer I could easily have again and again. Excellent.

Appearance: Pours a delicately hazed, slight and slender, pale yellow body with a third-inch cushion of white suds.
Smell: Atop the marginally grainy, doughy, crackery malt presence are touches of stonefruit and vinous grape with a very faint, very distant kiss of honeyed sweetness.
Taste: Passably crackery, lightly doughy pils maltiness with one solitary drop of floral-toned honeywater springboards into fact-finding fruits and a nice, subtle piquancy. White grape must, wholesome pear, all awash in a lovely cracked stone minerality. Lighter touches of resin-touched herb, passion fruit. Modestly bitter. Frankly, the beer veers away from traditional Pils platitudes and does go, for me, towards being reminiscent of an unoaked chardonnay. Closes out decidedly dry.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light body. Medium carbonation with a little zing to it.
Overall: Good stuff.
