Pilsner

The time it took for them to ferment also hurt sales as quick-fermenting German-style beers spread throughout the world.

So as the Pilsner became more popular...

The Germans.

The Germans have the...

Holy Ghost, which is the double IPA version.

Holy Ghost is good.

They had a Pilsner.

That was really good.

I went to Canada and I brought back.

It's called the old style Pilsner.

Old style, I think, is the brewer Pilsner.

I don't know if you've ever seen this.

They have these white bunnies on the can and it's a green, red and yellow flag.

All right.

And Foley has finished his first beer.

It's a Pilsner.

It's actually pretty cool.

Um, Pilsner or Kel in the Czech Republic, in the city of Prague has been named for the second year in a row as The leading beer tour visitor experience according to World Travel Awards.

And I am like, okay, that's a mouthful right there.

The leading beer tour visitor experience at the World Travel Awards.

True.

All right.

Well, Pilsner Urkel home of the original Pilsner beer has been treating guests to the original beer experience set in the city square to celebrate Czech beer culture and takes visitors on an immersive 10 part exhibit.

They just like, they just throw you in and you're in it and you go through the whole thing.

The Weyermann, I would...

They're Pilsner Malt.

Okay.

Oh, you know, either German or Belgian Malt.

That's when I would do 60 minute boils, you know, from time to time a lot more often.

But, uh, like I said earlier, I don't, there's no really rushing it.

And I think that, um, uh, a lot of, I mean, base malt is, you know, for me, it's Pilsner.

Uh, and I think you need to drive away some of that nastiness.

But we found that we didn't have the lager to go.

So now we always have, like I said, we don't have our light lager, but we always have a Pilsner or two in the fridge and ideally something like this so that hopefully we can convert and do off-sales to some of those non-IPA drinkers.

That's smart.

And yeah, it's, this is like a nice one.

It needs to be better or whatever, but like, yeah, it's good to like take a pause and be like, that's a good beer.

Good.

And also like, so we're not drinking, I'm not drinking the smoothies and the sours, the Pilsner I've drank a fair amount of.

Um, It's nice to drink a little bit of those too and be like, yeah, it's not something that I'm going to pick up often, but it tastes good.

I love those beers.

And speaking of Czech Republic, Pilsner or Kel is one of my favorite beers.

I come to beer from multiple angles.

There are Venice beers, beers that are like wine in some way or another, mostly the sour side of things, the Guzes, the Lambics, the whatever, but also the Belgian quads and triples.

All right, our next beer is from Altstadt Brewing in Fredericksburg, and this is their Pils.

It's a German Pilsner that two weeks ago won the gold medal for best German Pilsner in the country.

How

about that? Nice.

We are drinking a winner.

We are.

It's 100% German Pilsner malt.

It's really good, super clean.

We've recently become in control of another brewery here that's called Padamo, which is a German-style brewery.

And so they do more traditional German-style beers, your Kolsch's, your Pilsner, your Altbier.

But the original one that we started with was Bandido Brewing in 2013.

Together, the two companies are brewing about 2,000 barrels per year, sometimes a little bit more, sometimes a little bit less.
