A delicately crafted hoppy Lager showcasing peacharine and other Tropical New Zeland hops.
We wanted to keep it easy drinking, but to have enough juicy hop presence to keep it interesting and enjoyable even after a few pints with coworkers and friends. To achieve this, we used a 100% Canada premium pilsner malt for the base. Great malt lays the foundation of any good beer, and on a delicate beer like this we wanted to ensure we had the best foundation for these fantastic hops.
Speaking of hops, alongside the aformentioned Peacharine, we used 2 other New Zealand varietals: Southern Cross and Kohatu. Southern Cross, nicknamed as the MSG of hops, was used during the boil to accentuate the citrus character while giving the beer a crisp light bitterness for body. For aroma, we complemented the Peacharine with Kohatu, a versatile hop that doubles down on the tropical and stonefruit flavors offered by peacharine. This is all brought together by Beirgarten lager yeast creating a smooth easy drinking but tropical flavored lager.
