pFriem Lager
pFriem Lager is the brewery's take on a Munich-style helles; according to Josh Pfriem the recipe was refined over roughly a decade before it joined the year-round range. Three pilsner malts and a small share of acidulated malt form the base, with Perle and Tettnang providing a restrained 20 IBU. It shows bright gold with pillowy white foam. Aromas of fresh bread dough, soft herbs, lemon and lavender lead into flavors of freshly kilned malt, honeydew melon and a touch of wildflower honey, with a faint note of sulfur and a smooth, effervescent finish.
