Soldier's Reward | Factotum Brewhouse
ABV: 6.2%
IBU: 29
Style: Pilsner - Other
Actively Produced
Description: The Classic American Pilsner (CAP) was invented by German immigrants who didn’t have access to the ingredients of their homeland. Instead of premium 2-row malt, they used the protein-laden 6-row. To combat the cloudiness that excessive protein causes, they added a modest amount of corn and/or rice to clarify the beer. Sometimes they could get their hands on German hops but, more often, they used the native Cluster hops, essentially the only hop harvested on American soil prior to the 1970s. Factotum’s CAP uses a touch of melanoidin malt to give the beer a little more depth of character. Expect a straight-forward beer with a creamy mouthfeel, a dry finish, a slight corny sweetness, and floral and spicy notes from the Cluster.
