Sketchbook Pinky Sweater
What the brewers say
“As the weather changes to cooler temperatures, don’t worry about holding a cold glass of our crisp Pilsner. But if you’re one of those people who like to sip a beer with your pinky out, we’ve got the perfect knit piece of apparel for you. An American Pilsner brewed with red rice.”
What our panel thought
Aroma: “Clean fruity floral and sweet spicy hops notes. Sweet toast and biscuit malt aromas. Slight citrus pith and a bit of pear. Interesting rice sweetness presents on retronasal.”
Flavor: “Clean and light with a complexity from the rice not normally found in craft Pilsner. Hops are restrained but still bring a nice floral note. Finish is dry with a touch of the rice sweetness.”
Overall: “Really easy-drinking beer. The rice adds a fun complexity and is well blended with the floral hops.”
