Purple Pils | Forbidden Root Brewing Company
ABV: 5.1%
Style: Pilsner - Other
Actively Produced
Description: Our Purple Pils starts with a classic Bohemian Pilsner, then bends the aromatic character ever so slightly into territory you can't reach with hops alone. Florentine iris (orris) root adds a deep, fruity violet note, merging with the brighter chamomile "Juicyfruit" aromas. Jasmine adds a very subtle spicy and exotic note. Add the classic, "spicy" Bohemian Saaz hops and the result is a unique, well-integrated combination. The total effect is quite subtle and highly drinkable—bending, rather than breaking the boundaries of this classic style we love. Oh, and by the way, the beer itself isn't purple; only the aroma is. Cheers!
