While they are famous for their \"juice-bomb\" IPAs, \u003cem\u003ePilsgnar\u003c\/em\u003e is where they flex their traditional brewing muscles. This is a quintessential German-style Pilsner a beer that is famously difficult to brew because there is nowhere for flaws to hide. It is designed for \"crushability\" and crispness, serving as a bright, bitter, and bracingly clean alternative to the heavy, hazy ales that dominate the modern craft scene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeer Description\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePilsgnar pours a brilliant, crystal-clear pale straw-gold with a massive, rocky white head that boasts exceptional retention and \"Belgian-style\" lacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e The nose is sharp, clean, and elegant.
