Every dusk has a dawn. This is our second lager inspired by our trips to the Czech Republic. Bohemian Dawn is the pale counterpart to Bohemian Dusk. We use traditional ingredients and processes to create a light, effervescent lager with a slightly hoppy spice.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to lager glass.
Appearance: cloudy pale yellow color with a two and a half fingers of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: herbal & floral hops, subtle honey-esque tones; biscuity/bready malts
Flavor: blends the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet malty tone to a light hoppy note; finishes bready malty
Texture: light to medium bodied, sessionable; very smooth along the tongue
Overall: I might not see this as a true Czech pils but it's a nicely crafted lager that I could come back to.

Clear gold. Oily. Lacey head. Nose has more herbs and grass than the others, malt and flowers. The most expressive of the group. Malt backbone but heavy herbs and oily hop. Oily, off dry finish. 7 3 7 3 13

Can at home on the eclipse night. Clear gold pour and white head on the smaller side. Nose is herbal and honey. Tastes of bright herbs, peppery, dough, honey, floral and some lemon on finish. The body is lovely and really just feels right. All a lager wants to be

Brewery draught, 3/28/24. Clear, coppery-brass. Small, off-white head, good retention. Bright hop with crisp yeast and mineral character. Luscious fresh herbs, spicy pepper and delicate honey and cracker from the malt. Clean, bright, snappy, aromatic. Brightly hoppy, assertively bitter but still leaving room for malt and yeast. Excellent body and malt depth, good attenuation. Herbs and spice, honey and biscuit, crisp lager yeast. Pretty spectacular. I'm betting this is a lot better fresh on draught than in can.

Another draught, 3/27/25.
Rich and malty, with ample, floral and herbal hops but maybe not quite as spectacular as last time. Not sure why that would be. It's still no slouch, with an incredible amount of flavor for its size and complex malt character including honey, biscuit and rustic grain. The only thing I want more of is a snappier, crisper, more palate-refreshing finish.
