Cisk Pilsner
Cisk Pilsner pairs Pilsen malt with Saaz noble hops for a crisp, full-bodied lager at 5.5%. Just the right amount of bitterness carries it, and it suits fresh fish, local goat's cheese and creamy risotto. Brewed by Farsons in Malta, it comes in 330 ml bottles and on draught and is best served chilled, between 4 and 7 °C, ideally with a Mediterranean meal.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Cisk Pilsner
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
