Photosphere by Maiden Brewing Company is a unique take on the classic German pilsner. This 5.2% ABV beer features a blend of three German pilsner malts, complemented by the earthy and herbal notes of Czech Saaz hops. The real twist comes from the generous dry-hopping with Citra and Mosaic, which lends an unexpected layer of flavor. On the nose, you'll find a captivating aroma of summer hay, wet moss, and a hint of dankness, with undertones of blueberries and tangerine. The flavor profile is dry and mineral, with a subtle touch of matchstick sulfur, balanced by a pleasant honey-like sweetness from the malt. This is a pilsner that challenges the traditional boundaries, delivering a refreshing and complex drinking experience.
