Panhead Port Road Pilsner Clone All Grain Recipe Kit
Panhead Port Road Pilsner Clone - All Grain Recipe Kit
Pilsner is famously Czech in origin, but here we've gone for a South Pacific hop profile in keeping with the people who brew it and drink it. Passionfruit, grapefruit and sauvignon blanc characters abound, stacked up on a robust malt base that's partly German, partly Kiwi.
