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.

A nice pilsner. Flavorful and a little bitter. I would reccomend picking up a six pack of this beer.

theviolet (171) - New York, New York, USA - APR 30, 2007
Pours golden yellow with a quickly dissipating head. Aroma of caramel, grass, toffee. Wow, not what I was expecting for taste. Very sweet and rich, not like most pilseners I’ve had. Slightly skunky aftertaste. Lots of malt, very nice. Reminds me of much stronger beers. Nice full motuhfeel, definetely an interesting drink.

sstackho (249) - Toronto, Ontario, CANADA - APR 30, 2007
12oz bottle. Pours a pale straw with lots of carbonation. Little to no aroma. I’m always wary of anything described as "refreshing" on the label, and this proves to be no exception. The taste started off rather bland - but eventually, a somewhat nice aftertaste actually did develop. I guess the Brooklyn Pilsener offers something lighter than the Brooklyn Lager, but I would choose the latter every time.

straw coloured with thick head. a little hazy. aroma is slightly hoppy and earthy. nice carbonation, slight sweet malt followed by a smooth hop finish. nice beer though not anything i’d rush to buy again. Would be a good one to get friends turned on to craft brews.

beerlord (215) - tonawanda, New York, USA - APR 22, 2007
Nice golden straw color, thin white head that laves nice brussels lace down the glass, big sazz boquet, sazz flavor all the way on a medium to light mouth feel, a touch of malt before the very dry finish. If you don’t like this beer, you don’t like pilsners.

Delirium (563) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - APR 22, 2007
Bottle. Pours clear golden, with a smallish white head. Aroma of malt, hay, and European-style hops. The flavor is slightly bready dry malt and a significant quantity of bittering hops. Not bad, but somewhat one-dimensional; could probably use some more malt character.
