SHO Brewery (IIIO)

SHO Brewery’s PIPILSNER is a focused tribute to the German Pils, emphasizing traditional techniques like decoction mashing to elevate its base of German malt. The result is a brilliant gold lager with a clean, doughy malt backbone accented by the refined, floral, and spicy qualities of noble German hops. Transparent and sharp, the beer presents a classically structured profile where the initial grainy sweetness is rapidly overtaken by a firm, lingering bitterness. This traditional lager balances a medium-light body with high carbonation, delivering a refreshing and minerally finish that honors the heritage of the style without unnecessary distraction.

Appearance. Straw to deep yellow (SRM 2–4); brilliant clarity; topped with a creamy, long-lasting white head that leaves persistent lacing.

Aroma. Moderate to moderately-high intensity featuring flowery and spicy noble hop character; low to medium grainy-sweet malt with light honey and toasted cracker notes from the decoction mash; clean lager fermentation with no esters.

Taste. Initial grainy and doughy malt flavor is quickly eclipsed by a firm hop bitterness; hop flavors are herbal and spicy; high bitterness that is clean and lingers into the aftertaste; very dry, crisp finish with a minerally edge.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a crisp, refreshing character; medium to high carbonation; no alcohol warmth; smooth but with a flinty, sharp quality typical of the style.
