B.M.B's First "Italian Pilsner"

"Pils di Volta," released by B.M.B Brewery (Miyazaki), is a new product styled as an Italian Pilsner with an alcohol content of 5.5% Alc./Vol. On the product page, it is described as the brewery's "first Italian Pilsner."

The name comes from the context of the style's origins: the shores of Lake Como in Italy. The beer was named "Pils di Volta" in tribute to Alessandro Volta, the physicist from that region and the inventor of the battery.

Hop and Flavor Design

On the recipe side, the beer centers on Hallertau Mittelfrih, with Motueka used as a subtle accent. The product description highlights the herbal aroma derived from noble hops and the mild malt flavor that becomes more apparent as you keep drinking. The design seems to place refined hop aroma at the forefront while still delivering more than just light refreshment.
