So this is being offered on very limited basis at Barley and Hops. I had this on tap at Milkhouse Brewery Festival for the end of Frederick Beer Week. This beer was the 2015 home brew contest winner. I never thought I'd give a perfect 5 score to a pilsner, but this one is beyond any other pilsner I've ever sampled either from American craft brewers or German (sorry I haven't been to Germany so exported only). It has a wonderful noble hop profile, sweet body but noticeable hop presence and a clean refreshing finish. Like last year's Roggenbier contest winner, this one is perfect in every aspect of what a delicious and great pilsner can be.
