Commercial Description:
Named for the delicate engravings popularized by 19th century seafarers, Scrimshaw is a fresh tasting Pilsner brewed in the finest European tradition from Munich and Klages malts, Hallertauer and Tettnang hops. Scrimshaw has a subtle hop character, a crisp, clean palate, and a dry finish.

Bottle. Pours gold with a white head. Malty aroma with grain, hay and light caramel. Medium body. Clean malt flavor with hay and some trace hops. Pretty good.

Enjoyed on tap at Mahonney’s in Baltimore. Hallertauer and Tettnang hops. Creamy, easy drinking above-average for the style.

(USA) Courtesy of The_Capt, Thanks. Pours a hazy yellow color with a med-white head. Aroma is of rotten garbage and the taste is D.O.A This stuff really sucks.......It is not crisp or clean. :(

Oh so this is what a Pilsener is really supposed to taste like!?! This is still a style i’ve neglected seriously for a long time. Picked this up the other day at the store, because really you cant go wrong with North Coast. This stuff is very crisp and delicious. Nice light crisp hop presense but very light almost biscuity/orangy malt hints also.

Bottle shared by The_captain. Thanks Mark (I guess). Pours light straw with a big foamy head. Smells like death. Death! Terrible tasting beer, if you can even call it that. Awful awful stuff.

On tap at Redlight. Pours a nice straw gold with a thick white head. Light hops, slightly malty with hints of lemon in the aroma. Crisp clean taste, malty with a hint of fruitiness. I am not a pilsener fan by any stretch, but on a hot humid day in Florida, this was very refreshing.
