King Crispy
King Crispy is the brewery's take on a German-style pilsner, brewed from pilsner malt with a little carapils. Tettnang, Sterling and Mt. Hood lend a floral, herbal and lightly spicy hop character over a clean base of cracker and fresh bread. The body is light, and the beer finishes crisp and dry with a clear, firm bitterness that does not linger.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for King Crispy
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.
