Scrimshaw Pilsner by North Coast Brewing

These North Coast guys know how to brew! Before the review, a thank you to Brian & Mark from one of local beer distributors who set me up with a mixed case of craft beers for me to sample. These guys (especially Mark) know their beers!

Okay, it's a Pilsner, the style of beer that includes most of your major brews, but as I sit here looking at it on the table in front of me, it looks like a Hefeweizen, amber-gold, with a slight cloudiness that comes when you brew unfiltered wheat. But it is definitely not a wheat. taste reminiscent of freshly-mown grass, with a little bit of citrus. Crisp and clear, with a quickly dissipating head. Not as unique as the other North Coast offerings, but a fine lager just the same.
