DOCK STREET FUTURO ITALIAN PILSNER
ABV 4.8% 48 IBUs
Italian Style Pilsner - A nod to Dock Street's founder, an Italian immigrant. A grist of German Pilsner malt is carefully decocted to develop a delicate and crisp malt base, onto which an assertive noble hop profile is built with frequent kettle additions of Hallertau Tradition, Hallertau Blanc, and Styrian Aurura. Dry hopped post fermentation with Blanc and Aurora, then lagered extensively. Dynamic flavor and aroma of herbal nobility, soft melon, and blooming wildflowers. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, served in the Keller-Style.
Italian Pilsners as a style are determined mostly by their hoppiness; they have the same malt complexity as the more well-known Czech style pilsners, which really balances out the bitterness, leaving an ultra-crisp flavor that is excellent as a session beer or paired with a great meal. Mangia!
