Scrimshaw Pilsner

There is nothing quite like a Pilsener when you feel like a Pilsener, and this beer does a nice job, if somewhat atypical of the style.

Fairly cloudy yellow body with some chill haze appparent, I suppose that the lack of absolute clarity is a bit unusual in the Pils stakes but it is not unattractive.

Very clean, tasty and refreshing, with a fuller mouthfeel than one would usually expect, but still very nice. Almost a litle creamy! I found the hops to be up front, more so than in several Pils, and there is a lack of bitterness in the finish which I would normally flag as a typical characteristic of the style.

I would call this a slightly unusual Pils in some ways, but it is refeshing and tasty so I would say worth seeking out. Nice.
