Hardly any other beer style has shaped the world as much as Pilsner. Since its birth in the 19th century in Pilsen, Bohemia, it has developed into a global classic and is prized for its clarity, straightforwardness, freshness, and slightly bitter character. Despite the variety of craft beers and experimental brews, Pilsner remains a staple in many breweries’ product ranges to this day – and is often the beer that reflects the brewing artistry and skill of a master brewer. With Pilsner, there are no frills behind which its creator can hide.
Gekko Brewing from southern France also pays respect to this traditional style – with a Pilsner that skilfully takes up the classic German brewing art and interprets it with its own signature.
The Pilsner presents itself in a light, uncharacteristically cloudy peach gold with a fluffy white foam. The nose itself reveals floral hop notes, subtle fruity hints, and a fine, earthy herbal spice. The first sip is refreshing and clearly structured: malt aromas evoke fresh bread and delicate biscuit notes, while the hops deliver fruity notes, meadow flowers, and a tangy hint of grapefruit. The pointed bitterness is elegantly integrated, ensuring a pleasantly dry finish with a spicy aftertaste.
Gekko Brewings Pilsner shows how delicious classic beer can taste – straightforward, full of character, and wonderfully drinkable!
