Warsteiner Premium Verum

Easily one of my favourite German Pilseners. Well balanced and goes down smooth. I drink these a lot nowadays.

On tap at T’Nev’s in Naperville. Very clear golden light with a white, foamy head. Pretty cheap looking, actually. Not too aromatic, but hints of lemon, mild grains, and century old pennies. Very light and crisp without a whole lot of aftertaste or hoppiness. Slightly fruity and grassy flavor with a very light sweetness and german tasting malt. Overall a decent beer to have on tap at a bar without too many selections.

Soul Cafe, Budapest. This was pretty bloody horrible. Revolting metallic chemical tinge. Nasty aftertaste. Rank !! The German Fozters !

bottle, clear gold color, bright white head, fruity nose, flavors of apple juice and lemon, crisp finish

This is a good beer for the price. It is like enough that you could drink a bunch but to me it does not taste watered down.

Pale golden color with a decent head that dissipates quickly. Aroma is citrusy with skunky under tones, taste was the same, but skunk taste may been because of the scent. Light carbonation with a crisp finish. I have had better Warsteiner than this, but this is what I was served tonight.

Overall, a good pils. Had on tap in Kimberley, BC. Pours bright golden yellow in colour with a frothy white head. Aroma is a plain grainy scent with mild malts. The flavour is somewhat hoppy and has tasty malts. Overall, a average pilsner.
