General Info
Inspired by Alstian-style Pilsner:
Judge feedback from a previous iteration indicated that a larger flavor/aroma charge would "bring more enjoyment." Earned a 38 at its first comp, scored by a Grand Master.
This iteration increases aroma hops and eliminates the corn to offset some of that perceived sweetness.
