Casco Bay Brewing Company - Pilsner

Unfortunately, today's mass-produced Pilsners offer only a bland imitation of the original delightful balance of fine malts and hops offered by classic German Pilsners. Not the case with Casco Bay. The brewery's pilsner is brewed with a combination of two-row pale, Carapils, and Munich malts. The brewers hop it up fairly well with German Tettnang hops to create a classic interpret-ation of the style. Note a pale maltiness and hop spiciness in the nose of this light amber-colored, medium bodied lager. We found it to be crisp, full of flavor and offering a slight bitter finish. Overall, the brewery has done an exceptional job of delicately balancing the hops and malts to produce a truly great lager. We recommend you enjoy it with spicy foods or, ideally, some fresh Maine lobster at dinner this month with your favorite Valentine (oops! You didn’t forget the big V-day did you?
