Commercial Description:
Brooklyn Pilsner is a refreshing golden lager beer, brewed in the style favored by New York’s pre-Prohibition brewers. In the 1840’s, the pilsner style emerged from central Europe to become the world’s most popular style of beer. Like its ancesters, Brooklyn Pilsner is traditionally brewed from the finest European two-row barley malts. German-grown Perle and Hallertauer hops provide a crisp, snappy bitterness and fresh, floral aroma. We ferment Brooklyn Pilsner at cool temperatures and then give it a long, gentle maturation (lagering), which results in a beer of superior complexity and smoothness.

12 oz bottle, pours a pale golden color. Aroma is very faint and slightly sweet. Taste is overwhelmingly bitter and completely dominates the taste buds. Palate is rough but is to be expected given the hoppiness. Nice change of pace from the sweeter Brooklyn IPA.

A fairly light crisp beer. Clear light amber color. Refreshing but not quit enough hops for its style. I hoped for more from Brooklyn

12oz bottle 3/18/09 (Sam’s Wine & Liquor-Doners Grove)-Pours golden with a nice small white head. Aroma of grains, hops, and malt. Taste is of the same with a nice hop character to it along with some sweetness. This light to medium bodied brew is not your normal tasting pilsner but still tasty.

Clear golden pour with a thin white head. Pleasant aroma of floral, fruity hops and malt. Good flavor of fruity hops, pilsener malt and mild sweetness. The body is light to medium with a creamy texture.
