Brand: Henderson Brewing Company

Italian Pilsner 5.5%

The second in a monthly series of limited-releases showcasing various lager styles and, of course, meditating on the transience of all things. Italian pilsners are pilsners that have been dry-hopped with European hops for maximum aroma. Softer, and showcasing more complexity, depth, and character than a German Pils. You might want this beer to stick around forever, but it won’t.
