Notes: Brewed as a "steam" lager version with S-23.
Also want to try US-05 for more peach/fruit yeast profile and may try WLP860 Helles yeast slurry.
If more of the actual Lone Star flavor profile is desired, corn may be better adjunct to get the sweetness and hops might need to be Willamette for bitter or maybe smaller additions to slightly lower IBUs. As is, this hop profile is subtle but definitely present and the Saphir adds a little light fruit/citrus and the Hallertau Blanc adds a little dry white wine to the finish.
Used Blackland Pale Moon 2-row for this recipe and it's extremely malty in flavor. Much richer flavor than American beers and more like European commercial lagers.
In a glass out of the keg or poured from the bottle it's pretty great. Drunk straight from the bottle, it loses its malt character.

Notes: Step by Step
The traditional Pilsner Urquell utilizes an undermodified Pilsner malt that is malted by the brewery. The mash is subsequently triple decocted to help break down the protein matrix that is still present in the undermodified malts. For three reasons we have decided to change up the classic recipe. First homebrewers don’t often have access to undermodified Pilsner malts these days. Second, a triple decoction means a long and rigorous brew day for the brewer. Finally adding in a protein rest could be detrimental to the beer’s body and head retention. So we’ve simplified the mash procedure and added some malts to help adjust the color and add a slight toasted character that the triple decoction should otherwise add to the beer’s profile.

Mash grains with 15 qts. (14.2 L) soft water at 142 °F (61 °C) and hold for 30 minutes. Perform a decoction, pull 1/3 thick portion of the mash (~1.5 gallons/5.7 L) and bringing to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes being sure not to scorch the grain mix. Stir the decocted portion back into the main mash.

The main mash should now settle at 155 °F (68 °C). Hold for a 30 minute rest.

Mash out, vorlauf, and then sparge at 170 °F (77 °C) to collect enough wort to result in 5 gallons (19 L) after a 90-minute boil. Boil 90 minutes, adding hops at times indicated. Cool, aerate, and pitch yeast.

Ferment at 50 °F (10 °C) until signs of fermentation have slowed considerably. Some diacetyl is noted in Pilsner Urqell, but if there is a strong diacetyl presence at this point, 2-4 days at 65 °F (18 °C) is advised. Rack to secondary and lager for 4-6 weeks at 40 °F (4 °C). After lagering is complete, bottle or keg as usual.

Notes: This is a promising recipe. Hibiscus very mildly complements Nelson Sauvin, lowers the pH (which makes the hop bitterness smoother), and gives a little bit of colour.

Notes: It's been several years since I had a Paulaner Pils fresh in Germany and I still think about it often. I won't have a basis for comparison here in the states, but I'll fool myself into believing it's the perfect match.

Brewer Notes:
*3-4L starter for yeast with yeast nutrient
*O2 for about a min. after cooldown
*Diacetyl rest at about 1.02-1.016 for at least 2 days by letting naturally rise to 62F-ish
*Transfer to keg and cool back down to 50F, then 40F, then after a few days move to keezer at 34F for lagering
*Fine w/gelatin after a few days
*Lager as long as I can stand it (2-3 weeks?)
