The Czechs invented it. You get to take the credit.

Czech it out. Black Rock Bohemian Pilsner is brewed with a high percentage of NZ Pilsner malt and a touch of Gladfield Crystal malt for a crisp, clean lager with firm bitterness and subtle malt sweetness. This is the style that put Bohemia on the brewing map and it has been earning its place in glasses ever since.

At 37 IBU, this one has more bitterness than the standard pilsner. Bright, refreshing and properly balanced. Serve it ice cold in a tall glass with a proper slow pour.

Makes 23 litres (about 60 stubbies or 47 schooners). Yeast included under the lid.

Brewing Instructions

Extract Can Brewing Instructions

  1. Clean & sanitise. Everything that touches your beer. No shortcuts.
  2. Make your wort. Pour 2L hot water into fermenter. Soften can in hot water (10 mins), empty into fermenter. Add fermentables (~1kg), stir until dissolved. Top up to 23L. Wort made. Legend.
  3. Cool & pitch. Cool to 18-22°C, take a gravity reading, sprinkle yeast on top.
  4. Ferment. Seal up, add airlock, find a dark spot at 18-22°C. Dry hop on day 4 if your recipe calls for it — just chuck 'em in.
  5. Check gravity. From day 5, take readings on consecutive days. Two identical readings under 1.016? You're done.
  6. Package. Bottle with carbonation drops or priming sugar, or keg it. Bottles need 2-4 weeks. Kegs are faster — obvious choice.
  7. Drink & brag. You made beer. Get around it.
