Tasting Notes
BalancedBitterCrisp
After Tilman Ludwig graduated from Bavaria’s famous Weihenstephaner brewing university, he spent two years brewing at Huus brewery in Switzerland before moving to Munich to open his own brewery in 2014. Since then, Tilmans has gone on to become one of Munich’s best modern breweries, making both traditional German styles and modern craft styles. Almost all of Tilmans business to date has been within Germany, and Bishop’s Cellar is extremely happy to introduce Tilmans beer into Canada for the first time!
With only the highest quality raw ingredients being used, coupled with long fermentation and maturing periods to produce a wonderfully round and balanced beer. On top of that, the beautiful branding and labeling are done by a local artist.
Tasting Notes
A rich and robust foundation of pale malt lends notes of sourdough bread, honey, and pizza crust while the mix of noble bittering hops mingle with assertively aromatic American hops. This Pils has many of the hallmarks that we love in the style; detailed and refreshing flavour, crisp and snappy texture, firm bitterness and a clean finish. The subtle touch of American hops provide a unique fruity component on the finish.
Method
A bit of a franken-Pils. While the foundation of this beer takes its inspiration from the great Czech Pilsners, but brewmaster Tilman opts to add some American hop varietals in the finish for a unique aroma. Long lagering times, and decidedly unfiltered means this Pilsner is full on flavour, and just as crisp.
