Yes, time for another fun table of Dutch beer analyses. For that most iconic of Lager styles, Pils.
Most Dutch beers bounced back to just about pre-war strength pretty quickly. The first couple of years after the war gravities were lower, but by 1947 were back to where they had been in 1939.
Take Pils, for example. In 1939 eight examples averaged 11.84ยบ Plato, 4.72% ABV and 76.48% apparent attenuation. In analyses taken between 1947 and 1950, the gravity averages out a little lower. However, an increased degree of attenuation left the ABV almost the same.
Those lucky Dutch drinkers. Beer back to its proper strength after just two years of peace.
