What the brewers say

“Old-word pilsner lagered in oak featuring Texas-grown pilsner malt.”

What our panel thought

“Grainy and bread-crumb-like malt notes in the aroma with soft herbal spice. The malt character struggles to emerge in the flavor—thin and watery, as the tannic note strips away the more delicate flavors, adding a rough resinous note that emphasizes the bitterness.”

What our editors thought

“Powdery soft floral notes in the nose, like a foggy sunrise in the botanical garden. Tannic extraction in the sip offers a counterpoint to the softer floral notes, as the bite amplifies an herbal bitterness.”
