Brownings Bohemian Pilsner

Brewed by Brownings Brewery
Style: Bohemian Pilsener
Louisville, Kentucky USA

On tap at the brewery. Aroma of cereal/corn. Taste is fairly hoppy, and a little nutty. One of the best pilsners I’ve ever had actually. Nice and smooth, easy to drink, no adjunct flavor, and acceptable hop character.

On tap at the bar. I Ordered the "Pilsner," so I guess it was this. Nice rich golden pour (not piss golden like a macro) with minimal head - but thats how they poured it. Very light aroma of pale malt and bitter hops. Refreshing and perfectly balanced flavor. Nearly perfect on the palate - perfect for the style. medium bodied with a nice texture and medium to low carbonation. Not an overly fizzy pilsner!!!

Draft at the brewery: poured yellow with a thin white head. Mild corn aroma. Slight fruitiness with hints of grape. Mild corn in the taste as well. Slightly dry with nice body. Moderately bitter in the finish. A good pilsener.

Draft at Brownings. Poured clear pale color with an average fizzy white head that was mostly lasting with fair lacing. Moderate herb and citrus hoppy aroma. Light to medium body with a watery texture and lively carbonation. Light balanced flavor with a light sweet finish of short duration.

On tap: May 15, 2006 - Pours light yellow with a fully receding white head. Aroma of corn, cooked veggies, and some herbal hops. Taste is crisp and relatively clean with firm maltiness. Mouthfeel is light bodied with full carbonation. Refreshing.

On tap: November 21, 2007 - Listed as the "pilsner", don’t know if this should be separated from Bohemian Pilsner, I figure the recipe is probably similar enough not to justify a new listing. Pours bright golden with a mostly receding off-white head. Aromatic notes of grass, herbs, cookie, and lightly sweet malt. Tastes of resinous herbs and grassy, sweet cookie. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and lightly resinous.

Draft - very pale gold. White head. Little aroma - slightly spicy. Fairly malty flavor with a touch spice. Saaz hops? Good, but not one of my favorite styles.
