Description
Schalten German Pilsner
A classic pilsner: crisp, refreshing, and just bitter enough to balance the sweet straw & bready malt flavors. This classic European recipe features German hops and a crisp, clean finish. This beer will require full attention and all of the brewer’s resources, including a temperature-controlled fermentation. The long lagering time will ensure that this beer is clear and golden.
