What’s the difference between lager and pilsner?
All pilsners are lagers, but not all lagers are pilsners. Pilsners are a type of lager known for their hop-forward flavour and dry finish, originally from the Czech Republic. Standard lagers (like Helles or Vienna styles) tend to be maltier and more rounded.
