Bitburger Bit Copa

Brewed by Bitburger Brauerei Th. Simon
Style: Fruit Beer
Bitburg, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany

Bottle at Wittlich Pig Fest. Another fruit beer concotion from Bit. Obviously lime flavoring but it seemed "chemically" tasting to me. I would prefer their Radler if forced to choose.

Bottle. Green color, cloudy. Lime and citrus lemonade in the aroma. Sugary sweet flavor with just a touch of alcohol. Thin. Lime aftertaste that dries up the massive sweetness a bit. Aspartame bitter.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a poisonous, hazy, lime green with a greenish head. Synthetic, perfumy fruit aroma. Light body with very sweet notes of exotic fruit. Very subdued bitterness. No particular pleasure. 310807

Bottle. [Courtesy of Papsoe, another great session @ Papsoe] Funny looking greenish fizzy head that was quickly goon. Spare greenish looking lacework. Cloudy green glowing color. Aroma of lime, citrus, heavy sugar base, syntactic notes of lime blending in. Light bodied with a thin texture and an average carbonation. Moderated sweet sugary flavor. Lime and sugar like sweet finish. Not that much acidic in there which was a surprise to me. 31-08-2007

Bottled(330ml). –Unnatural murky greenish yellow colour with nuclear pale green head. Grapefruit and some hint of lemon in the nose. Very fruity taste, pleasant citrusy and something sweet (cachaça maybe) with a surprising flavor of real beer. Quite refreshing.

Bottle: Poured a deep yellow with a green hazy tint, the head is greenish white and froathy. Aroma is a lime/grape fruit. The taste starts off with the citrus fruit but returns to a corny malt finish. I actually like this more than most the other bitburger creations.

Bottle, 3.4%. Grapefruit aroma. Cloudy yellow/green colour. Plasticky neon-green head. The flavour starts off quite sweet with grapefruit bitterness. OK balanced, not as sweet as the worst Radlers and almost drinkable. Low to medium carbonation.

33cl bottle: Poured a funky murky green, like algae with a fizzy light green head. Strange looking drink. Made with Cachaça, this is quite a fruity, citrusy drink while still retaining the Bitburger flavor. Well, a little maybe. Fruity. Slight corn in the finish. Drinkable.
