Ordering ingredients for my next 2 beers. Plan to brew a Czech Amber Lager and a Czech Pale Lager (pilsner). I'm debating on which base grain to use for the recipe. For both, in the past, i've used Floor Malted Pilsen Malt and Czech Prostejov Pilsen Malt, both with good success. I've been reading up on Hana Heritage Malt by Crisp and was intrigued with this as well. I do a hochkurz decoction mash for most of my lagers.

Those that have brewed a bunch of Czech style lagers, what is your preference between the 3.
