Moa Whiskey Pilsner is an intriguing twist on the classic pilsner style. Brewed by the Moa Brewing Company, this imperial pilsner has been aged for 9 months in used pinot barrels that were conditioned with premium Scotch whisky prior to filling. The result is a beer that displays a rich, hoppy character with subtle peat-smoky notes on the palate. Dry-hopped twice in the barrel with Motueka and Nelson Sauvin hops, this Whiskey Pilsner boasts a dry, vinous, and highly bitter finish that lingers on the tongue. At 10.0% ABV, this is a bold and complex offering for the discerning beer enthusiast.
