Bohemian – Pilsner Lager

This is an unorthodox lager with a subtle biscuity malt base, balanced with noble hop bitterness and a spicy aroma. Our soft Mitchelstown water – flowing from Ireland’s highest inland mountains – is uniquely suited to brewing this crisp and adventurous drop.

Treat as an aperitif with popcorn, amazing with pizza and don’t miss trying it with Thai food. Perfect for a chilled out session.

Description

Crisp & sessionable

Style: Czech-style pilsner lager
Malt: Irish pilsner malt
Hops: Hallertau, Hersbrucker, Lublin
Strength: 4.0% ABV
Bitterness: 33 IBUs

Tasting notes:
Colour/appearance:pale gold in the glass, white head.
Aroma: floral, with a hint of pepper.
Flavour: this is light on the palate, clean and delicate, but with plenty of sophisticated flavour. There’s enough bitterness to make it interesting, and a little peppery spice from the hops.
Aftertaste: light on the palate, with a snappy, bitter aftertaste. Very sessionable.

Food pairings:
this is the perfect beer to have with pizza, working brilliantly with the tomato sauce and cutting through all that melted cheese. The snappy bitterness is a delightful counterpoint to the sweetness of shellfish – try it as an aperitif, served in champagne flutes, with a half-dozen Irish oysters or even have a glass with some savoury home-popped popcorn.
