Commercial Description:
When the Original Münchner was brewed for the first time at the end of the 19th Century, it was a spectacular success. With its hoppy taste, subtle, light and elegant, it becomes ever popular. Today the Paulaner Original Münchner is the best sold Münchner Hellbier (lager beer) in the world and Paulaner's No. 1 export beer in over 30 countries with its wonderfully subtle, spicy, naturally hearty taste.

This is what lager beer should taste like, floral and clean in body and taste with an inviting hop note. This is an excellent drinkable helles.

Bottle... Poured pale, vibrant golden with a white head. Aroma is crisp with pleasant hops and earthy bread notes. Flavor is grassy with lemon-citrus and fresh hops. Some smooth malt to balance. Finished smooth with sweet malt.

0,5 l can. Golden color. One of the better beers of this type. The taste is an almost perfect mixture of floral, herbal and kinda spicy hops aromas. Malty and yeasty aftertaste. Very drinkable and refreshing, even in the can.

Amber, light-gold, traces of bubbles rising; has a clear, crisp aroma to it, you get the hops there from the beginning but not an over powering scent; certainly a full hoppy taste, medium bitter from the start to the end, pleasant without taking over the mouth; bitter after taste followed by some sweetness. Better on tap, acceptable in the bottle

This may not be the best beer of its category but it’s still all right. Seems a little lighter overall when compared to its peers, the other Dortmunder/Helles beers which I hold in high regard. Which is why I’m a tough critic on it. Nevertheless, it’s still really good stuff and I’ll pick it up any time it’s on sale. Paulaner ist gut bier.
