COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Brooklyn Pilsner is a refreshing golden lager beer, brewed in the style favored by New York’s pre-Prohibition brewers. In the 1840’s, the pilsner style emerged from central Europe to become the world’s most popular style of beer. Like its ancesters, Brooklyn Pilsner is traditionally brewed from the finest European two-row barley malts. German-grown Perle and Hallertauer hops provide a crisp, snappy bitterness and fresh, floral aroma. We ferment Brooklyn Pilsner at cool temperatures and then give it a long, gentle maturation (lagering), which results in a beer of superior complexity and smoothness.

Pours a strawish color with minimal head. Aroma of citrus. Flavor is lemon and malty and somewhat bitter. For a pilsner its pretty good.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a clear straw color with a thin white head. The aroma is citrus, wheat grass, and pale malt. The flavor is bready/biscuity malt with some lemon citrus. The finish has a general bitterness to it. Decent pilsner, its just hard for me to get excited by this style.

thicker than your European pilsners, hint of citrus taste to it, nice body and hop mix to it, probably not a true pilsner but this is to my liking and loved the body on it.

Golden color......fluffy head. Sweet aroma of malt. Flavor in the front is similar to the aroma......extremely crisp mouthfeel. Back has a hint of bitterness.

Clear gold with a moderate stable white head. Honey sweet malt aroma with some floral hops. Sweet and malty with toasted cracker and some tangy hops. Has a strangely dirty finish and a satisfying bitter bite. Quite flavorful. I would like to try it fresh on draught.

Bottle. Pours golden with thin white head. Taste is refreshing like the season. Not a bad offering on a 97 degree day.

Heavy peppery aroma with a rye bread scent. Buttery and malty with plenty of noble (saaz) hops. Great pour, must be gentle in order to control the towering, fluffy head that forms. Dark gold in color with plenty of white lacing and a thick, foamy, white head. Hearty Pilsner, nice and full bodied. Spicy hop bite along with a soft creamy aftertaste. Bold flavor with a great hop presence and enough malt to create a good balance. Green and peppery hop flavors, followed by doughy bread, caramel, and pretzels. This is one rocking Pils.

A really good pilsner. Pours golden color, with thick, smooth head. Mouthfeel is very light, Very floral aroma, slightly hoppy taste. Perfect summer beer.
