Moa Methode Pilsner is a captivating Pilsener that showcases the expertise of the Moa Brewing Company. This clean, crisp lager boasts a dry finish that is complemented by the citrus aromatics from a late addition of Pacifica and Motueka hops. The champagne yeast used in the secondary fermentation imparts a complex, spicy character, adding depth to this German-style Pilsner. The tasting notes reveal a high bitterness that is beautifully balanced by a relatively full mouthfeel. The citrus hop characters dominate the aroma, with the presence of fresh bread yeast notes adding to the overall complexity. Moa Methode Pilsner can be poured carefully off the lees for a more refined experience, or with the lees mixed in for a stronger yeast character. This versatile Pilsner is best served in a Pilsner glass at approximately 6°C to maximize the aromatic release. Moa Methode Pilsner has been recognized for its excellence, earning a Gold medal at the Asia Beer Awards and Bronze medals at the Australian International Beer Awards and the Brew NZ Awards.
