Golden, peppery, herbal and clean-finishing, Urban Chestnut Brewing Company's take on the classic Czech-style Pilsner Lager is here to help make the season bright.
The Pils-purist on any list is sure to appreciate its immediate bitterness and distinctive malt character. After all, the Czechs literally invented the Pilsner style... what a gift to the world!

Can to lager glass.
Appearance: glossy golden amber color with a three finger white foamy head which dissipated to leave subtle lace
Aroma: sweet cracker/bready malts, subtle peppery hop tones, some herbal qualities, sly grassiness
Flavor: previously mentioned aromas blend sweetly with super subtle spicy to herbal backing; sly aftertaste of malts and herbal to spicy tones
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable, clean finish of herbal to cracker malty and peppery tones
Overall: nicely done winter lager that I would return to.

Can shared by Matt A. Clear gold, nice sparkle, decent head, excellent retention and light lacing. Aroma is Pilsner/pale malts, mild dank herb. Taste follows aroma. Smooth texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Appropriate for style.

Pretty good beer. A little more bitter than the actual Czech pilsner's that I've had. Fresh, grassy, bready, bittersweet. Clean and satisfying.

Can from Tavour. Pours gold with a large foamy white head. Aroma of grass/spice with pale malt support. Med body arguably. Clean. Crisp. Dry. Grass/spice on top of light pale/bready malt. Very nice.

Pour is a clear bronze with a large white head. Aroma is a real nice wet dough malt and a spicy hop. Flavor is the same, nice chewy wet dough with a spicy saaz hop. Real flavorful and well done.
