Need A Name For My Pilsner
|

I'm getting ready to brew a Pils and am in search for a good name. Any suggestions?
Its going to be 10 pounds of German Pils, 10 pounds of American Pils with german hops and american hops.

Traditionally, Pilsners are named after the place they are made or after their maker followed by Pils.

Not exactly German-American, but...
The German side of the border was called the "Siegfried Line", and the French side was the "Magenot Line" (maj-en-O).
Oh, wait...it just hit me...had to go back a little earlier than WWI/II...
German-American conflict between Geo. Washington and the Hessian troops at Trenton (NJ)...(I'm from So Jersey...  )...
Hessian's Defeat Pilsner
Washington Kicked Butt Here Pils
Hessian's Slumber Pilsner
Surprise At Dawn
Patriot Pils
The Valley Forge-Trenton Affair, nah, too long...

I like long names, Neidrige Klasse Braugesellschaft= Low Class Brewing Company (I think thats a pretty loose translation though)

Supposedly the Headless Horseman was a Hessian Soldier.
Maybe "Headless Pils"?
