Taco Stand
Taco Stand is a West Coast-style Pils brewed with Czech and German malts and a lager yeast. Saphir, Krush and Mosaic go into the kettle; Krush, Waimea and Citra follow as dry hops. The beer is light gold, clear and dry, with a well-balanced bitterness. The hop character is intensely citrusy, with sweet orange and grapefruit and lighter notes of yellow and tropical fruit.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Taco Stand
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
