Foam First
A Czech-style pilsner from a St. Louis brewery that respects the Prague blueprint. Bright golden pour, dense creamy head, bready-crisp Pilsner malt, and a firm Saaz-inflected noble hop bitterness through the dry finish. Foam First is 4 Hands at their most technical — the beer where the how matters as much as the what.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Foam First
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.

What is a Czech Pilsner?
