King Pilsner

King Pilsner

Flavour Characteristics

An authentic Czech-style Pils Lager brewed with only 100% imported Bohemian malts, Saaz hops and a true strain of Czech yeast.

King Pilsner is bright golden coloured, full-bodied beer with a refreshing taste. It delivers a soft texture, complimented by the proper balance of malt and Saaz hops. Its flavour begins with a pleasing malty taste, imparts a dry bitter tang, and finishes very cleanly. Consumers are quoted saying "there is not a beer in Canada that tastes like King Pilsner", and "this beer tastes like the true Pilsners in Europe".

Food Pairings

An extremely versatile beer that will match a wide variety of dishes. Excellent with everything from shellfish, cream soups, salads, and sandwiches to bright, lively, and spicy cuisine such as Mexican and Thai. An excellent aperitif, it also matches a wide variety of cheeses.

King Pilsner

King Dark Lager

Flavour Characteristics

Our authentic brewing technique, using only the finest imported Dark Munich Malt and Noble German Hops, gives this beer King's trademark "true to style" aroma and flavour. This deliciously dark lager is red-brown in colour, with a thick tan coloured head and a rich, full palate. It delivers a complex yet clean bready taste with a hint of toasted chocolate, and leaves elegant lace lines to the bottom of the glass.

Extremely flavourful, balanced and refreshing, our Dark Lager can be truly appreciated from the very first taste.

Food Pairings

Ideal for more robust fare, this beer will pair well with both smoked and roasted pork and poultry, robust sandwiches, and gamey sausages. It will also be a great accompaniment to many side dishes involving potatoes and grilled vegetables, and is a great partner for bacon.

It finishes with amazing toffee malt flavour and crisp bitterness that dries smoothly on your palate without becoming too sweet.

Food Pairings

Perfect for outdoor barbecues, Vienna is great with burgers, sausages, chicken, and pork dishes. It is the ideal match for pizza and tomato based dishes, and pairs well with hearty sandwiches and roasted vegetables.
