Commercial Description:
The classic Bitburger - a mature and most agreeable beer - is brewed with the best of ingredients in the same traditional way it has been for many, many years. The result is delicately tart and pleasantly bitter - with a strong hop taste.

(Bottle). Aroma is bread and malt. Pale golden with thin white head. Quality flavor profile, classic for the style....some hops bitterness, bread, yeast, and a bittersweet finish. Very nice.

Tap at The Yardhouse. Yellow pour. White head. Yeasty, grainy, malty aroma. Actually one of the better pils I have had in awhile. Flavor is pretty crisp and malty wtih some hops to balance. Watery finish. Not bad, not amazing.

A decent pilsener, I like American pilseners much better though. Pretty crisp and drinkable. Dry bread flavor. Short, slightly watery finish. Not as grassy as some other pilseners. A little too watery to be a very good beer. Some straw taste that wasn’t too great.

This is good shit:The aroma glides up your nose with strong hay,honey and pineapple fruit ester emphasis. I can’t get enough of these dry ,bready malty German pilsners:)
Subdued straw base with flakey cream as its base ..but the flavours are what you pay for. Notes of doughy ,bready malt -with a pleasing sweetness ,that’s mellowed and not overly flamboyant. Grassy,resiny almost waxy ? hoppiness giving pines and needles on my gumbs. More pineapple esters in a long ,dry bready finish.
An unassuming gem of a Pils. Maybe a more bright hop character and this would be wicked good.

Delicate aroma - a touch of hop spice. Pale gold with lingering white head. Honey malt sweetness, then spice hop flavour and dry, bitter finish. Easy drinking, tasty enough, but unspectacular.

A great German Pilsner with good citrus and malt tones and a lasting bitterness.

Sweet malt and straw aroma, pale golden yellow, light and crisp, good for refreshing in a hot day.

On Tap Germany. A very well known beer, and is a local beer for me but not the best. Not that I am a Pils fan but it is of good quality. This si the only true beer Bitburg makes the rest are light or mixes.
