7th Day Brewery Pilsner

This is the beer that started it all. Mike Beresford-Jones’ hunt for a good craft lager was the catalyst for him developing the recipe for this Pilsner in his garage overlooking the ocean. This Pilsner brought together the founders of 7th Day and inspired people to crowdfund their first commercial batch of beer.

Mike’s taken a European classic and added new world hops to give a little extra zing. It’s light and fruity and oh such a beauty, opening on aromatic hops but finishing clean with a whisper of Pilsner malt character. With a soft tingle on the tongue and a smooth body, this Pilsner goes down a bit too easily.

Oh, who am I kidding? That’s exactly the point of it.
