Bare Bones Pilsner
Classic pilsner: clean, crisp and easy to drink, with a robust, slightly sweet malt character at the front of the tongue and notes of alpine flowers and just-baked bread through the palate. Bare Bones is one of the first three recipes the Lost Forty team brewed, and it came back in 2026 with its recipe unchanged and its original illustrated can.
