Smuttynose – Vunderbar Pilsner Coming In May

The entire Smuttynose team is excited to announce the first bottled release of Vunderbar Pils (aka Short Batch #11), the first installment in our new rotational four pack series!

Vunderbar has been a draft-only release four times as prior to this official roll-out. Most Short Batch beers aren’t exactly to style, but Vunderbar certainly is. A classic pilsner, Vunderbar is made from German malt and imported Saaz hops. It starts at just 11° Plato, which will yield an alcohol content between 4.5% and 5% by volume. Even though 15 IBU isn’t a lot, copious dry-hopping will satisfy even the most refined hop-heads. Light, refreshing and crisp, Vunderbar is everything a lager beer should be!

Due to tank space, we can only brew 100 barrels of each four pack beer a month. Initially, distribution will be limited to New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New York City and Washington DC. Vunderbar season runs through August.

Smuttynose devotees may also be familiar with the other two rotational four pack releases. Big A IPA is taking on a less-permanent role in our line-up, being available from September through December. It’ll be followed by our Black IPA, “Noonan,” which was initially released as Short Batch #12.
