Commercial Description:
A truly great Pils, a little maltier and more ‘Bavarian’ than the rest. The 6-packs are brand new for the American market.

Bottle. Pleasantly hoppy flavor and aroma. Somewhat sweet. Refreshing. Medium bodied, not thin. Overall pretty solid. Worth another session.

Excellent hops aroma that has more to it than the typical German hops, including some nice caramel on top of the two-row. Clear, dark straw with a lacy white flanel blanket. More or less typical German Pils. Clean and crips with some hay and citrus. Perfect balance between sweet malt and hops bitterness, but still a bit low of flavour. At least it is not overly bitter like some. Light to medium body, medium carbonation, clean and crisp finish.

Bottled, 500ml from Real Supermarket, Bamberg. Yellow to gold with white head. A particularly malty Pilsener, sweet malt biscuit with mid carbonation. Some citricity but not outstanding. Fairly average.

Bottle from BevMo. Clear golden in color. Grassy aroma with some graininess. Somewhat sweet and malty. A little bit of bitterness in the finish. Refreshing pils. Easy to drink.

This is a medium-priced average looking beer. It has a light color and produces a nice head. It feels very clean and crisp in the mouth and has just a hint of bitter. This beer goes very well with a late night salty snack. The first bottle I had won’t be the last.
