Friday, 10/31: Confluence Pilsner Release

Taproom release on Friday, 10/31!

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 peoples 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-hued elixir is clean and refreshing, with cracker malt character, a touch of floral bite 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! Distribution across Iowa will begin on Monday, November 3rd.
