Confluence Pilsner,
German Style Pilsner
4.9% ABV
The beer in early 19th-century Plzen was bad. So bad that the angry citizenry dumped 36 barrels of the local wheat ale in the streets in protest. They could import Bavarian lagers, but good locally made beer was just as important to the people of Plzen then as it is to us today, so they sent for help. They sent an architect to Munich to learn brewery design, and he returned to construct a state-of-the-art brewery, including a new malthouse with the ability to produce newer, light-colored malt. He also returned with Bavarian-trained brewer, Josef Groll. By 1842, Groll unveiled his "Pilsner," and the rest is history. The light colored, crisp, clean lager has become the most popular beer style across the globe. Confluence Pilsner is our faithful take on this timeless and perfect style, brewed with authentic German malt and hops. This golden lager is clean and bright, with notes of cracker malt, a touch of floral hop aroma from Noble hops, and a crisp finish. It's the beer the people demanded, and who are we to stand in the way? Prost!
Enjoy a glass in the taproom and don't forget to grab a 4-pack to take home to enjoy. Distribution across Iowa will begin on Monday, October 26th.
