Pipeworks Alla Salute Italian Style Pilsner (pack of 4) (5%)

Pipeworks Alla Salute is a 5% ABV Italian style pilsner from Pipeworks Brewing Co. in Chicago, sold as a four-pack. It was created in collaboration with J.P. Graziano Grocery, a Chicago sandwich shop, and is an unfiltered, light-coloured lager with spritzy carbonation and restrained hop bitterness. The beer is intended as a sessionable companion to hearty deli fare. Aroma brings white bread, dried straw, lemongrass and lemon zest, with a subtle spicy, dried-grass note. The palate is clean and bready before lemon zest and lemongrass emerge, with mild herbal spice and moderate bitterness. The finish is dry and brisk, with earthy hop character and faint citrus peel.
