Golden, peppery, herbal and clean-finishing, Urban Chestnut Brewing Company’s take on the classic Czech-style Pilsner Lager is here to help make the season bright.

After all, the Czechs literally invented the Pilsner style… what a gift to the world! 5.3% ABV – MO
  • URBAN CHESTNUT GERMAN PORTER 6/4/16oz CANS – German Porter with notes of Dark chocolate, roast coffee. A lager that’s as rich as it is robust, and as dark as it is strong—does it get more German than that? UC’s version of the classic “Starkbier” is rightfully hefty, in both the ABV and mouthfeel departments. Less fruity than your traditional English recipes, this German Porter is best enjoyed after a long, hard day of winter chores… or, around a warm fire with friends and family this holiday season! 7% ABV – MO

This everyday bier ranges in color and sweetness depending on the amount of Munich and roasted malts used. The sweetness of the malt is then balanced by the use of another Bavarian friend…the Hallertau hop…in this specific case, Hersbrucker, grown near Wolnzach, Hallertau. 5.2% ABV – MO
  • URBAN CHESTNUT STAMMTISCH 6/4/16oz CANS – German Pilsner. A “Stammtisch” is an informal group meeting held on a regular basis – more directly translating to ‘table for regulars’.

It’s a traditional German Pilsner featuring a blend of Hallertau and Strisselspalt hops, giving it a pronounced herbal and spicy aroma. It’s crisp and dry with a light grainy malt profile. We think it’s the perfect accompaniment to any gathering. 5.4% ABV – MO
