Brewing Details

Style Context

As category context only, the Brewers Association guideline for West Coast-Style Pilsener describes an assertive, crisp lager with bold modern hop character and a body built to carry heavy dry hopping, at 5.0 to 6.0 percent ABV and 30 to 50 IBU. The published ABV is within the category range, but the brewery markets the medal winner as an Extra Pale Ale. Its fermentation method is not established.

Research Notes

• Field pass 2026-10-13: Searches found no newly verified IBU or brewery page for Coral Crush. The previously recorded brewery beer page was not revisited.
• First pass: The brewery's current 13 beer lineup (on tap and to go) does not include Coral Crush, so it is likely a past or rotating release.
• First pass: The visible part of the Alma Mader Untappd beer list (25 of 347 beers) did not include it.
• First pass: Web search was unavailable for most of this run, so retailer, taproom menu and press sources could not be located.
• First pass: Researched 2026-10-13.
• Second pass 2026-10-13: The brewery's awards page explicitly associates its Extra Pale Ale label with the 2026 bronze medal, tying the apparently conflicting style label to the winning entry. Untappd supplies strength and named hops; no separate pilsner version was found. The current brewery beer page no longer contains the beer.
• Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: the brewery site was read; it has no Coral Crush page, and the description on file comes from Untappd.
