Pirate Life Brewing - Port Adelaide - Slow Pour Pilsner

This tantalising pilsner is a modern take on a timeless classic, and calls on a unique tap to secure the perfect pour. In this case ‘perfect’ alludes to the beer’s monumental head, which is both excessive and somewhat of an oddity. But don’t be dismayed, it’s true style, and comes courtesy of heightened carbonation and a nifty restrictor font. Both Pilsner and Acidulated Malt supply a sturdy base (the later lowering the liquid’s PH and hence increasing the acidity of the beer), while Pacifica hops lend a telling grassy whip. In the glass, aromas of white bread, mint and freshly cut grass pair with a range of distinctive esters. Its bright and cleansing to sip, with a refined bitterness and soft biscuity finish.
