Bad Seed Brewing

This elevated German Pilsner showcases the expressive range of Tettnang hops through a refined, dry-hopped profile. Built on a clean, crisp base, it offers brilliant clarity and a snappy, refreshing character. The sensory experience is defined by sophisticated hop layers, ranging from peppery spice and earthy black tea to vibrant notes of bright citrus and fresh-cut grass. A delicate floral aroma weaves through a crackery malt backbone, while a firm, lingering bitterness provides a clean, bone-dry finish. It is a masterful exploration of classical noble hop varieties, balancing traditional lager drinkability with a modern, hop-forward intensity.
