From Port City Brewing:
Bill Butcher, founder of Port City Brewing, located at 3950 Wheeler Avenue in Alexandria, VA is pleased to announce the re-release of his summer seasonal beer, Downright Pilsner, available in May 2013. Crafted by Head Brewer Jonathan Reeves, this hand-crafted lager will be an authentic Czech style Pilsner, brewed with 100% Pilsner malt and noble Saaz hops. The limited production Downright Pilsner is the summer seasonal beer produced by Port City Brewing Company. Downright Pilsner will be sold at select retail, restaurants and bars in Washington, DC, Virginia, Maryland and North Carolina starting May 13, 2013. The supply is limited for this special beer as Port City Brewing Company is only producing two 90-barrel batches with a suggested retail price of $12.99 for a six-pack.
The 11,000 square-foot craft brewery is dedicated to bringing great quality, innovative, handmade craft beers to the DC and Mid-Atlantic market. Port City produces world-class quality beer, brewing four year-round beers along with a rotating seasonal selection. The Downright Pilsner is a crisp, refreshing, and modern version of a traditional Pilsner, which will delight all summer long. This beer has 4.8% alcohol by volume and boasts a deep golden color and is medium bodied with a soft round malt profile and crisp, spicy, hop character on the finish. Downright Pilsner gets its carbonation completely naturally as its kept in the fermentation tanks for up to six weeks. A unique twist on this beer is the dry hop addition of Saaz hops during fermentation. This extra infusion of hops gives the beer a refreshing bite on the finish.
