The folks at Sawdust got their inspiration for this beer from a visit to Alsace. Where the hell is that I said to myself, my words exactly. There’s lots of places I haven’t been to and that’s one of them. Apparently it is a Eastern region of France, bordering Germany and Switzerland. Sounds European to me. I checked on famous people from Alsace and I guess Marcel Marceau* is from there, although he didn’t have much to say about it. I parle vous a bit although with Marcel it might be a one sided conversation. Trois Houblon means Three Hops in English.
This beer poured nice golden slightly hazy with its bubbly personality rising to the top in a bright white head. An aroma so fresh it almost froze my nose. Nice mild hop flavour with a bit of fruit, carbonation present. A light hoppy crisp finish. A bit fizzy. A nice craft pilsner, a bit unique but well balanced. All elements in moderation.
