North Coast ScrimshawBeer-a-Day #182

Halfway through the year, and I’ve just about exhausted the selection at my favorite retailer. I’ve taken to shopping with a list of things I shouldn’t get.

Named for the delicate engravings popularized by 19th century seafarers, Scrimshaw is a fresh tasting Pilsner brewed in the finest European tradition using Munich malt and, Hallertauer and Tettnang hops. Scrimshaw has a subtle hop character, a crisp, clean palate, and a dry finish.

Pale, but not quite blonde. Copious white head. Earthy and a little fruity. Refreshing. Goes pretty well with this tomato, basil, bread dish my wife made. I’d have this again.
