This Czech Pilsner 5 gallon beer recipe kit is your passport to the Bohemian mountainside. Our Czech Pilsner 5 gallon beer making recipe kit produces a refreshing and smooth golden lager that channels the spirit of Pilsner Urquell. Czech Pilsners are often referred to as Bohemian Pilsners, but are richer in color, body and malt character than German Pilsners. Czech Pilsners are a bit cleaner and softer, too.

This 5 gallon recipe features native Czech Saaz hops for rounded, spicy, floral character in your glass. This Czech Pilsner 5 gallon beer recipe kit also features cold fermenting lager yeast for a clean finish. If you’re new to brewing lagers, don’t worry - tips for temperature control are included with our Czech Pilsner kit. If you love light, refreshing lagers, this Czech Pilsner beer recipe kit and our Light Craft Lager Kit are great places to start.

Our Czech Pilsner 5 gallon beer recipe kits are also available in 1 gallon recipe kits for small batch brewers or 1 gallon starter kits for new brewers.

A note on water selection: Czech Pilsners are traditionally brewed with soft water. For an authentic brew, consider using filtered water & diluting with distilled water. If you do not have filtered water, try half spring water + half distilled water.

A note on temperature control: Lagers are best fermented at cooler temperatures.This Czech Pilsner Beer Recipe Kit uses W-34/70 yeast, which can ferment between 58 - 68°F though it can tolerate up to 72°F. For best results a cooler fermentation temperature is ideal.
