Pilsner

Given the daily growing flood of modern, flavorful and exciting craft beers, the Pilsner may seem a bit bland and simple, but we believe that sometimes nothing beats a down-to-earth, tart and bitter Pilsner .

The Nuremberg-based tucher brewery makes just such a beer: Theirs flows into the glass in crystal-clear, sun-gold hue, crowned with a cap of snow-white foam, and tastes of bread crust, honey, freshly mown grass, and lemony hops. A straightforward, crisp, slightly bitter brew with sparkling carbonation and a smooth mouthfeel.

Tucher Pilsener, like most representatives of its style, pairs perfectly with more delicate dishes. Rich, fatty, and flavorful dishes allow the beer to fade into the background, but fish, poultry, and light desserts wonderfully complement the tart, fresh, and slightly bitter aroma. For anyone who wants to make their next dinner a truly delicious experience, we recommend serving a well-chilled Tucher Pilsener with an oven-baked trout. The fish stays especially juicy when wrapped in baking paper with a little good olive oil, lemon slices, garlic, and parsley. When tightly sealed, the packaging becomes a mini steaming chamber, cooking the fish in the most gentle way possible. Serve with dill-flavored potatoes with plenty of butter and a green salad with onion vinaigrette. A light, delicious meal that perfectly complements the hoppy beer experience.
