Market Street Pilsner is an authentic Bohemian style pilsner. Using our special Bavarian lager yeast, our Classic Pils is slightly sweet with an exceptionally smooth malty body. The finish is dry and pleasantly bitter from imported German Hallertau and Czech Saaz hops.

Market Street Pilsner pours to a beautiful, bright, deep golden color with a bright white head, and a good bit of carbonation. The nose on this beer is very crisp, with really good pilsner malt aromas, and subtle, balancing aromas of herbal/grassy hops. The palate is crisp, and firm with outstanding pilsner malt flavors. The body is very round and clean on this beer making it very drinkable. Market Street Pilsner finishes with more great malt flavor up front, then ends with just a slight bit of herbal hop bitterness to round this beer out. This is an outstanding beer with great malt flavor. It is just a bit too malty for the style, and could use a dash more hop aroma and bitterness. This however, is just a very minor flaw. I enjoyed this beer very much, and really loved the malt character.

Not a huge fan, even fresh from the taps here in Nashville at the Market Street Pub. It’s hoppy and has a distinctive lager taste. ALways seems a little watery to me, and kind of plain. Not bad though. Never understood why so many people around here like it.

Much better than expected, but overall rather on the thin side and with a finish that fades. Pretty simple basic but not bad.

As I remember, this was one of Lindsay Bohannon's first offerings when he started brewing. Nashville did not have a lot to offer us beer-wise in those days. This lager stood out as the best pilsner available at the time. I still enjoy it whenever I can get it. Nice hop balance, dead on accurate for the style, very drinkable.

Poured a slightly cloudy golden color with a small white head and some lacing. Lagery, hoppy, grassy aroma. Hoppy, malty taste.

Light gold color. Medium white foamy head. Aroma is grassy, grainy and sweet. A lighter bodied pilsner. Malts are fruity and fairly sweet. Hops are mild and not very spicy. Well balanced. There is a slight metallic taste to it and it way too sweet. But it is light and refreshing and non skunky. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and dry. Aftertaste is very sweet.

Aptly described in the commercial description as being slightly sweet and bitter, it is a nice offering out of Nashville. Smooth drinking but with just a bit of a twinge of citrus in the aftertaste.
