Commercial Description:
Summit Grand is the first pilsener brewed by Summit Brewing Company. Developed by our Brewmaster Horace Cunningham, Summit Grand follows the tradition of Bohemian Style Pilseners. This style refers to the many great pilseners that originated in what is now known as the Czech Republic. Our Summit Grand is brewed with select malts and both domestic and imported hops. Golden in color, with just the right amount of body, Summit Grand is truly the perfect beer for any occasion.

Lively pour with an intense carbonation, large white head, and blanketing lacing. Faint grassy aroma with a fading pepper scent. Soft body, minor bitterness and a delicate ease of enjoyment. Standard Pils flavor, and this one tastes very fresh. Grassy, grainy cereal, and green noble hops abound in a light flavor. Enjoyed each bottle on my back patio as Autumn begins to creep in. Goodbye Summertime it’s been fun

Pours a lovely light gold, clear with lots of fine bubbles, fine frothy white small head. Sweet and sour aroma of grass, light lemon and white bread, a bit herbal. First taste is quite bitter, sharply followed by tangy sweetness and then again finishing biter. Flavor is very clean but pretty boring, light lemon, crackers and soda water. A nice crisp clean medium body.

Malty with a somewhat sharp herbal hop note, this is a good all-purpose crowd pleasing lager, markedly better than your typical macro "pils".

Slight hay nose. Body is a bright yellow color. Flavor is of hay and a touch of lemon.

Pours like a typical pilsner beer. Aroma is grainy and herbal. Flavor has malted grains, sharp hops, and a clean dry finish. I like it.

Now known as just "Pilsener": poured a bright, clear golden colour- small head. Aroma is pleasent- fresh hops, green grapes and grass. Taste is firm on the palate, hops are to the point- but well balanced. Filling with a semi dry finish.

Sampler pack from Woodman’s Oak Creek. Light aroma of cereal grains, light hop notes. Thin and watery on the palate. Grassy hops, malt. Bland and on the unimpressive side.
