Description

Joe and Caroline drink local pilsners while discussing the history of the style.

What We Are Drinking
Sunshine Pilsner 
Tröegs Independent Brewing – Hershey, PA
ABV: 4.5%

“It takes the right ingredients, people and processes to nail the complex balance of two-row barley, zesty Saaz hops and lager yeast. Secondary fermentation creates natural carbonation that delivers soft notes of fresh-cut straw and flowering herbs. In the end, this bright and refreshingly clean American craft pilsner is our go-to when the sun is shining and makes us happy when skies are gray.”

LusenPilsner
HighGrain Brewing – Silverton, Ohio
ABV: 5.1%

"Light. Crisp. Herbal."

*Recently won a gold medal in the German Pilsner category in the U.S. Open Beer Championship 

Vlad Pilsner
Fretboard Brewing Company – Blue Ash, Ohio
ABV: 5.3%
IBUs: 17

"Vlad is an award-winning traditional German Pilsner by Fretboard Brewing Company."

Drew Pilsner Czech Pilsner
Brink Brewing Company - College Hill, Ohio
ABV: 5.4%

"A traditional style Czech Pilsner - rich, complex, bready maltiness combined with a soft, earthy hop bitterness. Full mouthfeel, but without residual sweetness. Fermented with the H strain from Plzen for characteristic Czech yeast flavor. "
