NOTES
Monteith’s has been crafting its family of fine beers for nigh on 150 years, staying true to the authentic process and recipes of the classic beer styles we re-create. Renowned the world over, Monteith’s continues to produce beers that are made to exacting standards and capture the spirit of the world’s most famous beers and, in some cases, forgotten favourites that are all but forgotten.
The uniqueness of the beers we make is largely due to the combination of brewing process, ingredients and the approach of our brewers. All Monteith’s beers are batch brewed and slavishly adhere to the quirks and characteristics of original styles (with a little bit of ingenuity added for good measure).
MONTEITH’S PILSNER TASTING NOTES
MONTEITH’S LIVELY HOPPED PILSNER BEER bursts forth with a brisk noble hop aroma. It’s a beer with immense flavour and enormous hop character. There is a tangible smooth clean bitterness, which really sets this beer apart.
Monteith’s Pilsner Beer is a Bohemian-style lager in the heritage of extremely hopped blonde beers brewed in parts of Eastern Europe. It has a complex hop aroma and a rich hop bitterness characteristic of this tradition in brewing.
Monteith’s Pilsner Beer has a malty quality that includes smooth caramel characteristics from the use of Vienna-style crystal malts. The key flavour is its enormous hop character, crafted around this complex malt flavour.
Using a very special antique hop variety known as a ‘noble hop’, Monteith’s brewers have been able to carefully balance wonderful hop aromas with smooth clean bitterness. This complex noble hop aroma deliver a natural freshness, enhanced by the brewery’s tradition of not pasteurising. This tends to better preserve the natural traditional flavours.
