Piercing Pils (2013)

Pilsner - Czech

A Perry-Pils hybrid, Piercing Pils is a Czech Style Pilsner brewed with a White Pear Tea and Pear juice. Both the juice and the tea were added in the kettle during the whirlpool (after the boil) for maximum flavor and aroma contribution. The Pear fruit complexity pierces right through the spicy Czech Saaz hops beautifully, adding a gentle acidity to this pale lager that makes for a crisp refreshing sipper. Amarillo hops add nuanced citrus notes that meld perfectly with the fruit.

What goofball aged a pils for a decade to see what would happen? I guess that is me. Some of the hops mellowed and there is a bit of them coming out of solution. The pear flavor is also mellowed, but it is morphed into a light caramel malt. Nifty.
