Rohe

German Pilsner

 

We love Lagers and German Pilsners in particular! This being Ophiussa's first Lager, it was made with immense love and attention to detail! We went into geek mode and worked the water from scratch to achieve the desired profile, we made a collaboration with Weyermann in order to have access to unique malts from Bamberg, we used fresh Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops in the hot side and in post-fermentation Dry Hop and we selected the best German liquid yeast we could find. As if that were not enough, we made a single decoction in order to take full advantage of the fantastic profile of the malts used and carried out a relatively long lagering period during which we carbonated the beer naturally to end up with a perfectly matured final product and a high carbonation but subtle on the palate. Pointless to say, it went straight to the top of the staff's preferences... classic and delicious!

 

This is just another brilliant illustration by Kruella d'Enfer, this time inspired by the Bauhaus posters of which the brilliant German architect Mies van der Rohe was the last director…
