Joe and Caroline drink local pilsners while discussing the history of the style.
What We Are Drinking
Sunshine Pilsner\\xa0
Tr\\xf6egs Independent Brewing \\u2013 Hershey, PA
ABV: 4.5%
\\u201cIt takes the right ingredients, people and processes to nail the complex balance of two-row barley, zesty Saaz hops and lager yeast. Secondary fermentation creates natural carbonation that delivers soft notes of fresh-cut straw and flowering herbs. In the end, this bright and refreshingly clean American craft pilsner is our go-to when the sun is shining and makes us happy when skies are gray.\\u201d
