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.

12 oz. -> shaker. Pours a hazy, lt. orange marmalade-color, with an off-white head, which dissipated quickly. Smells of soap, beer "skunk," dryness, and (strong?) toffee. Tastes yeasty, with subtle hops balancing the malts, and retaining the soapy, pils skunkiness. Dry finish. I’ve had better pilsners, but hey... Fort Bragg. Hooah!

Bottle. Pours a deep golden with a creamy off-white head. Slightly sweet grassy aroma is indicative of a similar flavor. Medium bodied with a lively carbonation.

Sample as part of a North Coast beer dinner at Teller’s. Pours a clear straw gold color with a medium white head. Aroma of straw, hops, pale malts, corn, grain, and beechwood. Malty flavor, with notes of hops, corn, and honey. Light-medium bodied, malty, and grainy. Crisp and clean, with some active carbonation to balance the maltiness. I liked this for the style, and would take it over a Euro pilsener any day.

Straw pale yellow in color... Aroma of a munich lager... Flavor is extremely light, almost watery... Not very profound, extremely gentle hops, slightly citrusy... Not terribly impressed, like hops flavored water..

Yellow honey gold with plenty of rising bubbles and a thin beige head. aromas of faint hops, sweet malts, and citrus. Crisp and bubbly with a slightly peppery flavor. Balanced well with spicy foods.

Bottle from the Flying Saucer Fort Worth. Light yellow pour. Aroma of okra, musty grains, and hops. Taste is bland and metallic. Mouth feel is almost painful.
