Warsteiner Premium Verum

Brewed by Warsteiner Brauerei
Style: Classic German Pilsener
Warstein, Germany

Had this draft lager, light and refreshiing, not bad, good beer, nothing special though.

Eazy to sink Pilsener ,with lots of maltiness & expressive hop tangz. A bit grainy and buttery .Could be a bit dryIer .I like Pil’s to be really, really dry. Is that some pineapple ester in there ? .

smells slightly corny and a bit like straw. colour is a clear gold with a moderate head that lasts. bitter and with a bit of hops, followed by a tiny little medicinal style bitter. keeping in mind the rating compared to the wide availability and price of this beer, this is most likely one of the beers i have consumed the largest quantity of in my life. good on a meal or on its own, a great standby.

Out of the bottle, no chance for a glass at the tiny deli on Isola Pescatori in Lake Maggiore, Italy. Resembles a "nice" version of Keystone Light. Not very bitter, low carbonation. Not great but fine to wash down with a proscuitto and cheese panino.

500 ml bottle. Golden color, frothy white head. Slight malty aroma. Smooth malty flavor, very clean. Medium body, medium-high carbonation. Straightforward pils, but somewhat lacking in personality.

From 500ml can. Pale yellow color, foamy white head. Good carbonation. Bitter and hoppy. Fresh and smooth.

Pours light golden, with minimal white head that subsides. Sparkling co2. Tastes of hay, grass, honey, plastic, with a moderate skunk. Light and fluffy with good noble hops bitterness in the finish.

Pours really light yellow with a 2 finger foamy white head. Aroma is grassy hops, straw, sweet white bread, month old hay with a fresh rain, and maybe a hint of citrus. Flavor is slightly grassy, grainy, sweet straw, and bread. A little spicy hops as well. Finish is strangely woody in an off putting way. Strange and not really good, maybe a good session to accompany rich spicy foods...come to think of it this would go great with a rich cheese covered chili, other than that....
