Commercial Description:
Bottom fermented pilsner style beer. Very elegant, pale in color, dry and hoppy. Its crisp clean taste is due to the extra fine Bavarian hops.

I had this one while sitting in the shadow of the Glockenspiel in Munich. None of the other Munich brands compare. This is a crisp and spicy pilsener with good balance of bitter and sweet flavors.

Light golden colour with a large foamy and shortlived head. short sweetness wich is overwhelmed by the beers bitternes. Light to medium body, with lots of carbonation.

Beer pours a nice lustrous golden with a large white foamy head that shrinks but does not dissapear completely..very lively carbonation strings. Great spicy hop aroma very strong..but fresh no skunk. Well balanced flavour in this pils..sweet but doiesnt last as it bitters near the back of the tongue then a nice biscuity taste underlying them both , quite well done Feels very comfortable on my tongue..nice and smooth , yet with some nice after taste. A most drinkable pils indeed. NOTES : Last few pilsners I have tasted I have become able to distinguish the German pils from the Original Czech kind..I prefer the German variety this and Bitburger are "sound" beers.

You know, I just prefer the Czeck side of the border for Pils. Light golden body--almost straw colored. A nice fine head, but it left very quickly without any Belgian Lace to remember it by. Delicate malt-hop balance as you would expect, but just not as flavorful as my favorite Czeck Pilsners. It's like a cross between Budvar and Budweiser.

Golden body with swarming carbonation and a spumous white head consisting of ultra-fine bubbles. Fragrant, grassy European hop aroma. Warm and lightly toasted malt, welcome levels of buttery diacetyl, and a crisp hop finish. A good pils that is nicely balanced.

Draught 1/2 L in Munich. Gold colore with white head. Light dough/airy yeast in the nose, nice and soft smelling, clean and pure. Flavor is pure and smooth with a properly full body and some crispness (soft) on the palate. Malty, fresh, refreshing finish. Awesome helles.
