Chuckanut Brewery just released a new beer: Italian-Style Pilsner. When it comes to European-style pilsners, most beer lovers know about Czech-style and German-style. You will find plenty of information on the internet about those two styles. Recently, a few breweries around the Northwest have introduced the word Italian to the pilsner dialog. So, what is so Italian about Italian pilsner?
Many people credit one brewery in Italy for introducing the earliest version of this style. Birrifico Italiano’s Tipopils is brewed in a small Italian town southwest of Lake Como. Birrifico Italiano began brewing the beer over 25 years ago.
