Looks like a great beer! I had a west cost Pilsner at a local brewery and loved it. I also see this style of beer becoming popular. It’s on my list of beers to brew. Love the beer club Collab. Cheers!
Great lookin beer! I love making these, I did a version of timbo pils - German hops hot side and a big citra mosaic dry hop 8oz into 5 gallons. What was the dry hop rate on yours? I like letting mine finish low like 1.005 or 6, I think the big hop doses help support the body plenty.
My homebrew version of this was a 2.5 gallon batch with 0.75 oz dry hop additions of both Simcoe and Citra. So 1.5 oz total, or a 3 oz dry hop for a 5 gallon batch. Per 5 gallon batch, I am usually in the 1-2 oz range for a Pale Ale, and 4 oz for an American IPA (and 6-8 oz for a Hazy IPA). I bet your 8 oz dry hop added a punch! I think my homebrewed version had a bit more hop aroma than the commercial version.
It has been on my to do list to follow up with the actual dry hop amounts. In my recipe that was used for the base, I used 3 oz total dry hops per 5 gal (~85g per 19L) that was split 50/50 between Citra and Simcoe.

That sure looks, and sounds like a wonderful brew there!
That looks great, I’ll add this to my brew list!
Good luck! Let me know how it turns out.
I brewed a version of this a few days ago. I’ll let you know how it turns out!

I have a very similar beer getting over hop creep in the fermenter right now. 12lb pilsner malt simcoe el dorado mosaic Lutra.
That sounds like a solid recipe. I have been curious how a clean kveik strain like Lutra would work.

Great beer style. Did you find out what the proportion of Citra to Simcoe was in the dry hop?

@@CascadesHomebrew Thanks, that sounds about right to me.
