Discussion
light german pilsner-like beer
2009-01-25 4:00pm
This brew was an experiment. I brewed basically a lager, but I filtered the wort after cooling it and as I ran it into the fermenter. I then added the 1056. So, it's really an ale, but it tastes and looks like a pilsner. It is light and refreshing and will probably be quickly consumed by me BMC drinking friends.
