Annex Idle Hands Italian Pilsner 4 Tall Cans

Annex Idle Hands Italian Pilsner is a crisp, dry-hopped lager produced by Annex Ale Project in Calgary, Alberta. Crafted in the Italian Pilsner style, it builds upon a traditional German Pilsner foundation using premium European malts and noble-style hops, which are complemented by a delicate dry-hopping step. The result is a highly refreshing beer with a bright floral and herbal hop aroma, crisp bitterness, and a clean, dry finish.

Palate : Crisp and well-defined, delivering light, cracker-like malt flavors balanced by a distinct, herbal, and slightly spicy hop bitterness.
