Schmucker Bio Pils

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

Sampled at the RSBEG08 grand tasting. Hazy golden with medium white head. Fresh hayish straw malt aroma with herbal hops. Light in body, soft carbonation. Well balanced with moderate bitterness.

Numerous bottles in Blackfriars. Aroma is sazz piney, grassy and lightly lemon, estery note off the yeast, pale and biscuity malts. Taste has alot going on, biscuity, peppery, the yeasty is giving all sorts of things, but quite a dry finish. Very interesting unfiltered pils, not very often i get the chance to have an unfiltered an top quility pils in Glasgow.

Clear notes of grapefruit with a long lasting palate and refreshing finish. A very good session beer is one was so inclined.

33cl bottle, Alko. (from notes, enjoyed it june 2009). Pours clear yellow, with a frothy head. grassy, hoppy aroma, lemon and hoppy flavor, average bitter finish. Very refreshing and drinkable.

bottle at blackfriars- pours golden white head, big nose of yoghurt, banana, tastes creamy yoghurt. refreshing, toasty, honey flavours. quite nice.

0.33 l from Alko. Pale golden color with small head. The aroma is even with malt and herbal-peppery hops. There is also hint of sulphur, graininess and lemon in the nose. Dryish malty and hoppy flavor. Dry minerals, peppery hops, restrained bitterness and hint of tartness in the finish. Good somewhat different pilsner.

A Mes rate: bottle thanks to our Magic.
Pale yellow and very hazy with a decent and lasting white head. Lovely milky hop aroma and some slight yeast and sugar. Similar flavour with a creamy and bitter finish. Balanced and not at all metaillic or cardboardy. Ok, a tiny bit of card but it’s really not a spoiler. Not really 100% to style but vey enjoyable.

not bad... clear pale yellow with some white head, grassy hops on the nose, smells really nice. flavor is a little sweeter then i thought dry and refreshing
