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 -shared with afire, Gestapo and K, sorry about this one! Poured a hazy bright yellow with white foam head. Good carbonation but then... Smell was just terrible, when something smells like rotting wale piss and tastes like it too there must be something wrong. Poured this out!, Jesus it was awful!

While low in taste, the taste it has is quite good (esp. for a pilsner). No metallic notes as commonly found in the style. Nothing special, but a good pilsner.

The color was golden. The head was thin, fizzy, and white. The aroma was sweet and grassy. The flavor was light grass and sweet. The palate was thin. The finish was abrupt.

Bottle. While this beer is not overly strong on flavour, it was an excellent complement to the vegetarian banquet we prepared. The beer provided a clean, dry taste to the palate. I could see this being a great hot summer day beer when properly chilled.
