This winter-inspired pils is a classic drinkable pilsner brewed with spruce tips. Like a deep breath of fresh Northwest air, Yellow Snow is a crisp and clean with a refreshing hint of spruce making this pils enjoyable time and time again. Contrary to popular belief, spruce tips don't actually taste like Christmas trees. Instead, they impart subtle yet complex aromas and flavors of sweet bubblegum, citrus and resin.

7 INGREDIENTS: Weyerman Pils, Carabelge malts; Perle, Sterling hops; Oregon Spruce Tips; Czech Pils Yeast; Free Range Coastal Water

Tap at Kalahana. Clear gold with a tight head. Honey and bready malt nose, pine, spruce, herbs, grapes, light butter. Strangely soft in a weird but nice way on the palate. Resiny, lemony flavor, creamy, touch of cardboard and diacetyl but not too much. Cask-like in body.

RB backlog. A bit esthery, chive, spruce, dough. Medium sweet, a bit tart, mineralic, light bitterness that builds up. Small, hard carbonation on a medium body. Feels much more like a spicy Zwickel, not like a Pilsner.

Can from AEON Liquors, Jiyugaoka. Pours clear golden, yellow if you will. At first quite decent and thick foam top there, reduces with time into a think layer. Nose has malts, some honey character, feels crisp. Not getting these spruce tips for some reason. Taste is nice malty, some resiny-spicy edge to it, maybe I'm imagining it but spruce tips could be there. Quite decent and flavourful full-bodied pilsner. Not very complicated beer, meant for drinking.
