Pistil
Stop and Smell the Petals
The Story
The dandelion army emerges from the soggy soil under the cover of early dawn. Suppressed by winter forces, they’ve hunkered down for months, readying for the rising spring sun’s emphatic call to arms. Pistils are locked and seeds loaded for the timeless battle between seasons and earthbound souls that seek to be freed from confinement. Shots ring out in the dim light, buds burst above ground and spring advances into the promise of a new year.
The Beer
A refreshing, sun-inspired spring ale. A subtle floral spiciness from Apollo and Northern Brewer hops is balanced by earthy notes from dandelion leaves, while acidulated malts provide a smooth, slightly sour malt body.
