History

This beer was brewed alongside numerous breweries for Timbo Week! This is a collaboration with Highland Park Brewing in which they share their flagship recipe, Timbo Pils with hand selected brewers to recreate a version of their own.

Timbo Pils builds on the classic German Pilsner tradition with the use of modern hops from the Pacific Northwest. This Lager beer is built on a high-quality Pale and Pilsner malt base, goes through a step mashing process in the brewhouse, and fermented at cool temperatures with our house Lager strain. Using flowery noble German varietals in the brewhouse this Pilsner emphasizes Pacific Northwest grown superstar hops – Citra and Mosaic in the dry-hop. The fruity hops with the super clean base beer creates a very drinkable, crisp, and tropical beer. The hops are well integrated so that you can still appreciate the subtle nuances of the lovely Lager beer.

Tasting Notes

This crisp and West Coast Pils pours a brilliant straw gold with a fluffy white head. Expect abundant aromas of mixed berries and tropical aromas. The palate is clean and dry, with a bitterness that helps balance the tropical fruit flavors. A hint of dankness adds complexity, while the elevated carbonation provides a spritzy experience. This is a crisp and vibrant beer that brings high amounts of hop intensity!

Food Pairings

Fatty meats in curry sauce and jerk chicken. Excellent with seafood: fish, shellfish, turbot calamari, crab, clams, sole, shrimp, oysters and lobster. Oily fish such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, and herring. Sausages including chorizo, andouille, and merguez bacon, sausage, and any other breakfast meats work wonderfully.
