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.

On tap Boston Beer Summit ’02: It didn’t look or smell that great, but this pilsener came through at the end with a great crisp taste.

pretty nice version of this style of beer. It’s light, sweet, tany, with a very nice crisp finish, that slightly reminds me of an IPA.

All the hype previous raters had put on this beer was impossible for this to live up too. Bottom line, its a poor excuse for a pilsner.

VENOM (941) - Connecticut, USA - AUG 12, 2001
Nice crisp and clean pils with a tasty sugary cereal like maltiness and german hop spicy bitterness. Very tasty.

Delbomber (387) - Philadelphia, USA - JUL 12, 2001
Crisp, clean, spicy taste is better than the flowery, sugary corn smell (ever have creamed corn?). Nice hoppy finish. Golden-straw coloring with very little head, I enjoyed this more after about the third sip.
