As Dan Boeckner is one to say “…some ghosts sink, some get called to the light…”
And as ghosts, er brewers, we can totally relate – being drawn to the light beer that is PILSNER. Its origins, its designs, its techniques, its hopping rates, and its fermentation regiment and everything in between – we want to know more, we want to brew more, we want to drink more. In this iteration, we used a simple base of Weyermann Pilsner Malt, our house German lager strain (3470), and hopped it with a German blend Magnum, Tettnang, Saaz & Mittelfruh. “You know our hearts beat time out very slowly” he says. Ahh Pshyeahh…just like pilsners, Dan!
