Pilsener – German PDF Print E-mail
A classic German Pils is a very light straw color and well hopped with a good deal of hop bitterness and a moderate hop flavor and aroma. Typically lighter, drier, hoppier, more effervescent, and less smooth than a Czech-style Pilsner. Great with eggs benedict, spicy chicken, various white fish, and creamy dressed salads.

Classic German Pilsners are very light straw to golden in color. Head should be dense and rich. They are also well-hopped, brewed using Noble hops such has Saaz, Hallertauer, Hallertauer Mittelfrüh, Tettnanger, Styrian Goldings, Spalt, Perle, and Hersbrucker. These varieties exhibit a spicy herbal or floral aroma and flavor, often times a bit coarse on the palate, and distribute a flash of citrus-like zest--hop bitterness can be high.
