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 ancestors, Brooklyn Pilsner is traditionally brewed
from the finest German two-row barley malts. Germangrown
Perle and Hallertauer hops provide a crisp, snappy
bitterness and fresh, floral aroma. The flavor of the malt
comes through in the finish. 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. We believe that you will find there
to be none finer. Unlike mass-marketed so-called pilsners,
Brooklyn Pilsner does not contain cheap fillers such as
corn or rice, nor does it contain any preservatives or stabilizers.
Brooklyn Pilsner is the real thing.
Food Matches
Brooklyn Pilsner is a very versatile beer which will pair well
with a wide variety of foods. It is particularly good with fish,
shellfish, sushi, Thai, Vietnamese and Indian dishes, ham,
smoked salmon, sausages, and assorted hors d’oeuvres,
and it makes a great aperitif.
