Beer Profile

cedar pils

Cedar Pils is a 5% ABV pilsner that offers a unique twist on the classic style. The beer is mashed in an oak puncheon layered with juniper branches, imparting subtle woody and resinous notes to the profile. Brewed over a wood fire in a copper kettle, it carries a faint smoky character that complements the crisp, clean bitterness typical of a pilsner. The aroma features delicate herbal juniper hints alongside lightly toasted malt, while the bright, pale golden body delivers a smooth, refreshing mouthfeel with a lingering, earthy finish.
