DOCK STREET FUTURO ITALIAN PILSNER
ABV 4.8% 48 IBUs
Italian Style Pilsner - A nod to Dock Street's founder, an Italian immigrant. A grist of German Pilsner malt is carefully decocted to develop a delicate and crisp malt base, onto which an assertive noble hop profile is built with frequent kettle additions of Hallertau Tradition, Hallertau Blanc, and Styrian Aurura. Dry hopped post fermentation with Blanc and Aurora, then lagered extensively. Dynamic flavor and aroma of herbal nobility, soft melon, and blooming wildflowers. Unfiltered and unpasteurized, served in the Keller-Style.
“The beer I’m most excited about right now is a single decocted Italian Pilsner we’re calling “Futuro.” There is absolutely nothing like a crisp, clean and balanced Pilsner with plenty of noble hop aroma and flavor.” Dock Street head Brewer Mark Russell, as told to bean2bean.
Italian Pilsners as a style are determined mostly by their hoppiness; they have the same malt complexity as the more well-known Czech style pilsners, which really balances out the bitterness, leaving an ultra-crisp flavor that is excellent as a session beer or paired with a great meal. Mangia!
