BIBO®
Bibo [Pilsner] - Bibo (pronounced bēbō) is a true pilsner with ingredients from five different countries that has a pronounced continental hop flavor and aroma in an incredibly well-balanced package. We use an enormous amount of the classic Czech Saaz and a touch of Motueka hops from New Zealand to put a new world twist on this beautiful old world style. Motueka offers a subtle pineapple note that underlies a harmony of the traditional black pepper, herbal, and cracker grain character pilsners are famous for. Bibo is dry, quenching, and frankly amazingly delicious.
“I DRINK” aka BIBO required a level of authority. Creature Comforts Brewers wanted this lager’s can to feel prestigious so I incorporated 18c Guilloché, a decorative technique in which a very precise, intricate and repetitive pattern is mechanically engraved into an underlying material via engine turning, which uses a machine of the same name, also called a rose engine lathe. Guilloché traditionally has been used to create official documents and currencies world wide. I thought it was a perfect match to the creative brief of a beer that requires a level of presidential distinction and prestige.
