Black Rock Bohemian Pilsner is crafted with a high percentage of MaltEurop Pilsner malt and a touch of Gladfield Crystal malt, resulting in a crisp, clean flavour and a light golden colour. The NZ Green Bullet hops provide a firm bitterness that balances the malt sweetness, creating a refreshing and well-rounded Pilsner.

This Bohemian Pilsner stands out for its bright, crisp character and subtle malt sweetness, making it a perfect choice for those who enjoy a refreshing and flavourful lager. The combination of high-quality malts and carefully selected hops results in a beer that is both satisfying and easy to drink, ideal for any occasion.

Costly, time-consuming all grain processes are not necessary to create quality craft wort at home. Discerning home brewers are always looking to improve their brewing techniques and beer quality. With this in mind, the master brewers at Black Rock have expertly brewed the highest quality fresh wort in a state-of-the-art Krones brewery, using only the finest fresh NZ malt before gently evaporating to 80 brix for your convenience.

Brew with Light Malt, or combine 2 cans of Bohemian Pilsner for a more intense hop aroma and bitterness. Try brewing this recipe with a specialty lager yeast like Fermentis Yeast: SafLager™ W-34/70.
