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.

Odd tasting beer. Golden colored with moderate taste and dry bitter finish. Heavy on the hops but with a lower ABV rating than most. Typical of a German beer, but only a medium quality German beer.

Pours yellow with minimal head. Decent mouthfeel-- fairly carbonated. Sweet-yeast aroma, aftertaste features slightly bitter hops. Not too hoppy. Not too anything. Solid Pils but not my favorite taste.

This beer is very well know over in Germany, but I wasn’t very impressed. It had too much of an aftertaste for me. If you want a good pils, then grab a Urquell or Budvar.

(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.
