What the brewers say

“German pilsner malt, German Noble hops, and a heavy hand of Nelson Sauvin and Peacharine.”

What our panel thought

“Bracing hop character—floral, lightly spicy with a hint of green pepper. Subtle, slightly grainy sweet malt character. Light carbonation. Rich with hallmark Southern Hemisphere character of chardonnay, stone fruit, and lime zest, but it masks the underlying lager.”

What our editors thought

“Light and fresh aroma, less intense than some, as floral and herbal notes combine with a simple effectiveness. Pithy tropical bitterness plays against the light body.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Alma Mader Brewing Pillar

“Subtle and balanced. A floral delight of hops up front. Cracker-like malt in the aroma and flavor. Firm bitterness, then a lightly sweet body lets the beer free-fall into an off-dry finish. Touch of matchstick masks none of the malt flavor.”

Alma Mader Brewing Premiant

Light, sweet, grainy-malt nose and bright, herbal-floral hops with notes of zest and spice. Nice round hop flavor, with gentle malt sweetness helping to push lemony-herbal notes. Clean and soft. Spicy hop finish begs more sips. Integrated and harmonious.

Alma Mader Brewing Parlez

“Grainy toasted malt with a dry corn-like back. Graceful herbal aromatics with an overlay of white bready malt. Noble hop flavor with a touch of pleasant sulfur and a hint of stone fruit. Malt is subdued and well-aligned with a gentle hop character. Pleasant drinkability.”
