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. Pours a clear golden color with a foamy white head. Aroma is mostly grass. Typical pilsener taste. Palate is light with a bland taste.

Light straw color, small head, little aroma. Classic pilsener taste, crisper than most, but not particularly interesting.

Pours a very clear light straw, looks like a faint yellow gold that has a slight glow to it, started with a white head that dims to a small ring, light malt with some grass aromas, just a bit of malt sweetness here and there, not much else, faint malt taste with a crisp bite with a lemon flavor, bitterness lingers for a while on the palate, has a light to medium mouth feel, I thought this had more flavor then aroma, has a touch more bitterness then expected, easy on the palate, I want to try this with pizza.

On tap at the restaurant Canela in La Manga, Spain. Clear yellow color, ok white head. Aroma is grain and malty sweetness. Flavor is the same, with some fruit in it. Refreshing, and I liked it the evening at the restaurant!

Clear yellow, not great lacing, some retention. Aroma is grass, straw, breads, more pale malt sweetness. Lighter bodied but quite drinkable and clean. Not a lot of complexity, but not really flawed either.

Yellow straw color. Not much there. Head disappears quickly. Slightly grainy. Crisp and clean. Missing something in aroma and flavor for me.

Poured into a pilsener glass. Pretty much the same color as piss. Despite a rather hard pour, there isn’t much head. What foam there is is bright white and fizzy. It disintegrates rapidly, leaving no lace. Aroma is at first lemony and tart, then grainy and sweet. Pretty classic pilsener nose. Taste is on the light side even for the style. Grainy malt provides sweetness and hops provide a refreshing tartness. Zesty, grassy, and clean. Carbonation is on the heavy side considering the body is paper thin. Very refreshing and crisp, a superior alternative to any macro, infinitely drinkable.

12 oz bottle, clear yellow color. refreshing taste of grass and light grain. I like this pilsner, very drinkable light beer.
