Hey there! Let me tell you about Penelope Pils from Humble Sea Brewing Co. This classic German Pilsner has some serious craftsmanship behind it.
At 5% ABV, it's a sessionable beer perfect for sipping on a sunny afternoon. The brewers have used traditional Noble hops, which give it that iconic floral aroma and crisp finish you expect from a great pilsner.
What makes Penelope special is the brewing process. They've used decoction mashing, an old-school German technique. It's labor-intensive but brings out richer, more complex malt flavors. The malts give Penelope a delicious cracker-like taste.
The beer is also step-mashed and naturally carbonated, showing the brewer's commitment to traditional methods. All this extra effort results in a pilsner with more depth and character than your average lager.
Fun fact: it's named after the head brewer's daughter, Penelope. You can tell this beer is a labor of love!
When you drink it, expect a crisp, refreshing beer with floral notes from the hops and a rich, bready backbone from the malts. It's their take on the perfect German pilsner.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
