PNW Pils returns this week. The goal with this beer is to use traditional German lager brewing techniques but instead of using imported malt and hops we’re using ingredients grown a little closer to home. Each batch of this beer will be slightly different with the goal of showcasing different malt and hops from the Pacific Northwest. For this batch 80% of the malt is grown and malted in Idaho and all the hops are grown and processed in the Willamette Valley of Oregon by the fine folks at Indie Hops. We used the same exact hotside process, hopping schedule, yeast, fermentation profile, and lagering times as our Pale Lager which is made with traditional German Ingredients. We even chose hops that were similar to the hops in our Pale Lager and used them at the same points in the boil.
