The Black Rock Pilsner Beer Kit is a light-bodied and refreshing beer that boasts a well-balanced flavor profile. It has a crisp, clean taste with a gentle hop bitterness that is well-rounded by a smooth maltiness. The beer has a pale yellow color with a bright clarity and a frothy head.
In terms of taste, the Black Rock Pilsner Beer Kit has a smooth, clean flavor that is well-balanced by a gentle hop bitterness. The malt provides a gentle sweetness that is complemented by the hop’s crisp and refreshing flavor. The beer finishes clean and dry, with a pleasant aftertaste that is perfect for those who are looking for a beer that is both refreshing and flavorful.
Additional Ingredients Required:
For fermentation you will also require 1kg of dextrose. As an alternative to dextrose consider Liquid Brewing Sugar to reduce the sweet finish of your brew. Liquid Malt will give you a smoother mouthfeel and more body – we would suggest using a Ultra Light LME or 1KG of Extra Light Dry Malt Extract
Premium Yeast Options:
The Mangrove Jacks Czech Pilsener does come with style appropriate yeast. Selecting a premium yeast can give you more flexibility when brewing in ambient temperatures and can improve the quality of your final product or support unique flavour characteristics.
Yeasts we think would work well with this brew are the Mangrove Jacks M54 Californian Lager yeast which has a very clean flavour profile or the Mangrove Jacks M84 Bohemian Lager Yeast.
If you use a premium yeast you would discard the factory yeast.
Suggested hop pairing:
For dry hopping the Black Rock Pilsner we would suggest only a very light dry hop. For a classic, clean and crisp flavour profile consider the Hallertau Finishing Hop or to experiment consider combining the Hallertau and Galaxy Finishing Hops for floral and fruity notes with a touch of spice.
Looking for a food match? The Mangrove Jacks Czech Pilsener goes Well With…
1. Pan Fried Fish: A simply pan fried white fish, such as snapper or cod, seasoned with herbs, will complement the beer’s crisp, clean finish while allowing its crispness to shine through.
2. Chicken Caesar Salad: The classic Caesar salad with its crisp romaine lettuce and creamy dressing will pair well with the beer’s light malt and clean finish.
3. Pork Schnitzel: The light breading and tender meat of a pork schnitzel will be a delightful match for the beer’s light and crisp character, with the Hallertau hops (optional) adding an extra layer of flavor.
4. Roast Chicken: A simple roast chicken, seasoned with herbs like thyme or rosemary, will enhance the beer’s herbal and floral characteristics (when used with Hallertau hops).
5. Pan-Seared Scallops: The subtle sweetness of scallops, especially when seared to a golden brown.
