Riverlands Brewing Company Kayak Pils

“Pineapple, dank peaches, citrus in the nose. The taste contrasts, starting with a firm, clean bitterness before jumping into a bouquet of grapefruit, tangerine, pine, diesel, followed by a background malt sweetness. A good, bitter-forward, flavorful example.”

“Great clarity, fluffy white head. A touch of bready yeast on the nose; fresh hops, floral and herbal, a bit of sulfur. Firm, pleasantly bitter backbone, moderately grainy with an herbal, slightly spicy hop profile. Mild carbonation, light malt body. Well balanced. The dry, bitter, refreshing finish lingers.”

“Spicy herbal hops and a hint of piecrust malt come together for an inviting aroma. Clean, floral, and perfume-like aromatics are balanced by a hint of malt and create a pleasant and inviting nose. Cracker and lightly grainy malt notes serve as a perfect canvas to both balance and showcase the floral and soapy hop bitterness. That bitterness, while distinct and present, is sufficiently restrained allowing for a near-perfect balance. The flavor develops the hops character nicely, adding a little more detail with some light floral notes. There’s enough clean malt to balance the crisp bitterness, without cloying or softening the finish. Hops flavor and bitterness last into the dry and taut finish—clean and refreshing with just a hint of lingering bitterness.”
