Pilsen beer or Pilsner beer type
This is a recipe for a Pilsen Beer or Pilsner Type (actually Pilsen is a city and therefore all Pilsen not brewed in this city should be called Pilsen type) which is the typical and most consumed beer in northern Germany and from here all over the world. Almost all the breweries in the world produce it and each one gives it a certain individual touch by varying the composition of the malt and hops or substituting part of the malt with other cereals. The characteristic of this recipe is the conformity according to the Bavarian purity law, that is to say that it is only based on malted barley, hops, yeast and water. It is a light, full-bodied, well-balanced beer with a characteristic hint of hop aroma and mild bitterness and is easy to brew.
