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 - poured a clear rich gold with a small white foam head. Light malt in flavor and texture with no real aspects outstanding. Middle of the road German Pils.

From a 12 bottle that came from a $8.99 six pack from BevMo in Vacaville, CA this poured clear yellow with a booming white head and sticky lacing. Nose of grassy and citrus hops. Clean mouthfeel. Flavor is caramel malts and some bitter hops, and the finish is clean. Quite decent.

12oz bottle. Pours a very light yellow with a 2 finger fluffy snow white head and nice lacing. Nose is grassy pilsner hops, grains and malt. Taste is grain, sweet corn and light floral hops with a clean, slightly metallic finish. Light-to-medium mouth feel. Pretty good.

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.
