Crisp, and balanced. It’s inspired by one of our founders’ family heritage. John Patek immigrated from Czechoslovakia to Shiner, TX in 1895. We chose to brew our first Czech Pils as an homage to the “old world”, the Pateks, South Texas, and Polka!
We brewed with pilsner malt and added a touch of Vienna and Munich Malt for subtle complexity. Then we liberally hopped it with Czech Saaz hops for a balanced bitterness and pleasant herbal hop aroma with a touch of lemon. Finally, it was fermented with a classic Czech strain and lagered for a crisp and refreshing finish!
