Schmucker Bio Pils

Brewed by Privat-Brauerei Schmucker
Style: Pilsener
Mossautal, Hessen, Germany

(Bottled) Slightly hazy yellow-golden with a smallish, firm and lacy head. Grainy-malty aroma with some buttery sweetness and hints of grassy hops. Aromatic, grassy-lemony hops in the flavor, with grainy pale maltiness and a dry, bitter and slightly dull finish. Light to medium-bodied, reasonably refreshing palate with medium carbonation. Ok, but nothing spectacular.

330 ml bottle. Finland. Pale golden colour with thin white head. Grassy hops and some sweetness. Fruity (grapefruit?), bitter hops and some malts. Dry, bitter and carbonated. OK and organic.

Bottled (from Alko). Golden colour, mediumsized white head. Aroma is malts and quite strong citrus as well as some grains. Flavour is malts, some citrus as well as quite much herbal and spicy notes. Grassy hops and some herbs/spices in the aftertaste. Strange brew.

Pitifully pale, not quite 100% clear, healthy white head. Sweet lagery aroma, a touch fruity in places. Pleasant carbonation. Milky light grain palate, some husky graininess too, a touch of ginger, and a real drying resiny hoppy bitterness. Makes you smack your chops afterwards. Finish lovely hoppiness. Unfiltered, this would be very good indeed.

Bottle 50 cl. Pours a cloudy pale golden with a rough, white head. Lightly perfumy hop aroma. Light body, a little maltiness and even lightly sweet fruit accents with a touch of cardboard. Dry and lightly bitter finish. 080209
