Pinkus Pils

Brewed by Brauerei Pinkus Müller
Style: Classic German Pilsener
Münster, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

If you like German style pilsners you will like this. The aroma is pure and simple malt and grassy hops. The appearance is hazy gold with a small head. The flavor is bitter with a lemon element followed by malt. The palate is what a pilsner should be. Overall this is a quality beer but is not really that great.

Meh, a beer that didn’t inspire me to write anything special about it but I drank it so I wanted to rate it. Average Pils style, grassy, yellow in color, more malt than normal. You know all this. Decent and conforming to style.

With the exception of the aroma, this is one pretty darn good pilsener. A great head, smooth, and not funky in taste. One to drink more than once.

Hazy yellow gold, dense thick head, lots of lace. Vaguely yeasty, a little grassy. Pale malt palate, almost wheaty, with a very bitter finish. I liked it, but it is pprobably the most bitter pilsener I’ve had next to Jevers.

Bottle: Had a malt and wheat aroma. Cloudy yellow body with decent white Flavor at first had a sharp lemon bite that is somewhat sour. Bite subsides and a decent hop lemon citrus flavor along with some wheat. Flavor on the finish was like chewing on a lemon peal. Dry fruit palate. Interesting beer.

slightly skunky, malty aroma. honey colored with a medium sized, quickly diminishing, white head. dry. sweet malts and a hint of hops work well but the alt beer is by far a tastier offering from this brewery.

Pours pale yellow with a quick spritzy froth. Malty dried wheat on the nose. Light, crisp, clean, and dry. Nice finish. A thirst quencher. A great specimen in it’s genre.

I had the Organic Ur-Pils, which is apparently a different name for this same beer. Clean, pale color with good foamy head. Fairly dry, especially midway thru the glass, but overall a good tasiting beer with a decent finish.
