Schell Pilsner
March 10th thru March 16th
Brewer's Description
A shining example of the true European Pilsner style beer, Schell's Pilsner is brewed with 100 percent barley malt, where the imported German Hallertau hops flavor is showcased. Its full hop characteristic and delicate aroma were developed in Pilsen, Bohemia around 1840. This style was widely copied by early American breweries. Over the years, however, it has been lost to the much lighter-bodied, low-hopped relatives we refer to as American "Premium" beer.

Aaron says It’s a Pilsner!

Yep, a pilsner. I was rather bored. Kinda sticks on my tongue longer that I’d like. Not sure what else to say. Yawn. Not bad, though. I’m at a loss for words.
