COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION The new Specialty Beer #3 is a Imperial Pilsener. This is a relative new beer to be introduced. Our version is a kicked up version of a Czech Pilsener. The beer’s origin city is Pilsen, Czechoslovakia. In 1842 it was reported that a Bavarian monk smuggled a pot full of lager yeast from a German brewery to a brewery in Pilsen. The last secret to making consistent lager beers was uncovered. It was the special yeast. Another ingredient that made the original pilsners unique was the very soft water in Pilsen (i.e. low mineral content). Pittsburgh has relatively soft water to begin with. Our Czech Pils was brewed with the softest water I could make. Our version goes American all over the traditional Pils. We doubled the alcohol and IBU’s and made this classic style our own. The color of the Imperial Pils is yellow to golden. You will find it slightly darker than the Celestial Gold. If you carefully swirl the glass and take a big whiff, you will get a full but delicate fresh hop aroma from only the best noble hop - Czech Saaz. The flavor profile is bold and malty with a distinct hop flavor. It finishes crisp and clean with a lingering Saaz bitterness. 60 IBUs
