From the brewer
The Hochzeit Pilsner is Black Raven’s summer seasonal lager. Brewed each year in limited quantity, this clean and crisp lager is the perfect summer treat. Brewed with traditional Czech grown and malted barley for an authentic European malt flavor. Domestic and European hops provide a balanced hop bitterness and flavor.

Peppery American hops open this lager, and a crisp, cereal malt finishes. It's not as well-balanced as Ninkasi's Pravda Pils or Upright's Engelberg Pils, but it's in that vein and quite decent.
Slight grassy funk on the nose, but much less than most European pilsners, and the flavor is nothing but crisp, malty and slightly tangy. The finish is clean, like a ginger ale, with just a hint of strident bitterness. Very refreshing.
