History

pFriem West Coast Pilsner 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 Pilsner malt base, goes through a step mashing process in the brewhouse, and fermented at cool temperatures with our house Lager strain. Instead of using flowery noble German varietals in this Pilsner, we emphasis Pacific Northwest grown superstar hops – Citra and Mosaic. The fruity hops with the super clean base beer creates a very drinkable, crisp, and tropical beer. The hops are well intergraded so that you can still appreciate the subtle nuances of the lovely Lager beer.

Tasting Notes

Bright fluffy white foam on top of a brilliant light gold body. Delicate aromas of guava, white peach, melon, Lemonheads, and mixed berries. Clean flavors of peach, mango, tangerine, kiwi, and dried papaya. Finishes crisp, hoppy, pithy, and quenching. 

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.
