Juicy description
Monteiths 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.
Monteiths 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, Monteiths 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 brewerys
tradition of not pasteurising. This tends to better
preserve the natural traditional flavours.
Monteiths Pilsner Beer is a premium beer that
challenges the perception of lagers being merely light
and mild. This tradition of highly hopped beers descends
from the earliest days on the West Coast when hops were
grown locally from Hokitika to Reefton and up to Motueka.
