What Our Editors Thought
“New Zealand pils nose with a fresh punch of guava and papaya, bit of Szechuan peppercorn, tropical floral tones, and fresh-cut honeydew melon. Soft and modern in the sip with full malt, just enough bitterness to balance the fruit tones, and a pithy finish. Clearly expressed yet thoughtfully structured with a foot in both worlds.”
What Our Panel Thought
“An American hop-citrus character of lemon overlays a water-cracker malt aroma. The flavor has an up-front but not overpowering citrus-and-pine hop quality. The delicate malt still has a chance to shine, and it’s delicious. Flavors are well balanced, and the finish is clean, bright, and dry. Very refreshing, delectable pilsner that shows its American roots well.”
What the Brewers Say
“Kellerpils brewed with Troubadour’s Pevec and Ballad malts. Hopped with Saaz, Mandarina Bavaria, Peacharine.”
