Dan cracks and mentally transports himself to the French countryside with his second French-Style Pilsner ever, Wayward Lane Brewing’s Sanson.
Wayward Lane Brewing Sanson
STYLE: French-Style Pilsner
ABV: 4.8%
IBU: N/A
AVAILABILITY: 16 oz cans/draft (Limited)
Stats above taken from the can/website/Untappd.
Appearance
Crystal clear, straw yellow in color, with a white, healthy, foamy head.
Aroma
Bread, flour, and spicy European hops.
Taste
Super clean, crisp, with a stoney minerality, breadstick, and an earthy hop note.
Mouthfeel
Fairly dry, light in body and on the mouthfeel, with foamy carbonation.
Overall
This is my second French-Style Pilsner, as I had my first for Episode # 450: Fur-Bearing Trout. I want to drink a few of these outside on a porch or at a picnic or barbecue. Pairing-wise, goat cheese flatbread hit my mind first, but generally lighter fare with shallots or rustic French favorites would fit.
Cheers and remember:
Life’s a tap…drink up ’til it’s dry.
All music on this show came to us from the now defunct Music Alley.
