About This Beer

Have you seen Grandpa Bill’s Pils? You know how he gets if he doesn’t have his medicine. We love him, but he’s a cranky guy, and the only prescription that seems to mellow him out is Junkyard’s Citra hopped Pilsner.

Tasting Notes

The brew’s refreshing notes of tangerine blend with a hint of pithy grapefruit, topping off the biscuity body like marmalade.

Crushable Crisp Refreshing Citrusy Biscuity

Noteworthy Ingredients

Citra Hops

At first, didn’t like it that much. It was solid, but just that first sip didn’t hit right. Then I took a second sip... next thing I knew the can was empty. Really liked this one.
