Brew our Hoppy Pilsner recipe step by step:
Polar Shine is designed as the modern and bright Pilsner of our winter collection. A clear, crispy, and refreshing blonde beer, where the finesse of malts meets an explosive hop bouquet. Citra and Superdelic bring notes of citrus, tropical fruits, red fruits, and tangy candy, amplified by biotransformation.
The unique touch comes from SafLager SH‑45 yeast: specially designed to boost hop biotransformation. It enhances Citra’s tropical aromas and Superdelic’s tangy notes, while adding a slight sulfur nuance that intensifies aromatic complexity. The result is a clear lager but intensely expressive, at the crossroads of classic Pilsners and modern Cold IPAs.
Result: a bright, aromatic, and intensely fruity beer, perfect to showcase the new generation of hoppy lagers.
