Leavenworth Friesian Pilsener

Silver Medal winner, Great American Beer Festival

Medium-bodied and pale golden in color, Friesian Pilsener won fame for its clean, dry malty flavor and very long, distinctive hop finish. This is a truly authentic rendition of the Friesian style Pilseners of northern Germany, with the emphasis squarely on hop flavor. No light weight beer, Friesian is a classic lager with robust flavor matching particularly well with many types of favorite Northwest foods. Our Friesian (pronounced Free-shun) ferments with a bottom-fermenting lager yeast at 55oF for 10 days. We then age (lager) this award-winning beer for at least 21 days. The results speak for themselves.
