The Crux
Filled to the brim with a blend of American and NZ hops, there’s nothing traditional about this.
Pilsner is a blonde lager that gets its name from the Bohemian city of Pilsen, first produced in 1842. using the lager yeast strain it's far more tolerant to cold temperatures than Ale yeast strains are. The suppressive effects of the cold temperatures typically used to brew a lager (coupled with their longer aging times) results in a cleaner flavour profile than you might otherwise find in an ale... our youngest addition to the menu, but likely a mainstay, Scotts NZ Pilsner is crisp, dry & good clean fun!
Crisp, clean, and quietly expressive, Golden Hour Pilsner delivers soft malt character and gentle Saaz hop bitterness.
A light golden colour, true to the pilsner style. As a pilsner it’s a hop dominated brew with three hop varieties; Cascade, Green Bullet and Nelson Sauvin. These give the initial hit of citrus fruit and fresh green hop character.
Good things take time & after 6 weeks of lagering, a clean crisp Pilsner delivers flavours that will keep you comming back for more.
Refreshingly dry and drinkable with balanced heat, Far North Chili Pils is the perfect compliment to every perfect summer day ahead. The brewers took a dry pilsner base and added Kaitaia Fire Chili sauce for one brilliant, seasonal brew. A stellar pair to anything off the grill, find it in bottles and on taps at fine independents as Kiwi summer rolls on.
