Warsteiner Premium Verum

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

bottle. Pours a really pale translucent gold with an actual head, so it could be worse. The aroma is of light hops, faint skunk, and a strange gassy odor that I can’t really identify but is definitely unpleasant. The flavor is not better, it’s really light with some hops in the mix of plastic and finish of wild onions.

This one can really hit the spot on a hot summer day. Better than your regular BMC crap, but still nothing really extraordinary. A cornflake nose with a light grassy hop character. Bright pee-yellow like color with a thin fluffy white head. Flavor is light cornflake and very light grassy hops. Finishes clean with little to no aftertaste. Easy drinking, hardly complex. Great German lawnmower beer.

Bottle. Good appearance of pale blonde with a good size head. Decent flavor of spices. Smooth but not really flavorfull. Too much of a watery feel and aftertaste.

Pale golden. Hoppy aroma. A bit watery but still hoppy flavour. Don't let it warm up too much.

On tap at Jan’s Wine and Boos (North Tampa, FL). Pours clear golden with a thin white head. Smells of sourdough, honey, grain. Flavor: Slightly watery with hints of grass, hops, honey. Slight tastes of honey on finish as well. Could a good thirst quencher on a warm summer day, but . . . .

Sitting on a 10 hour plane flight and this is being served, well I guess I will pass the time a bit by writing a review. Pours with a medium head that fades into a decent lacing. Color is crystal clear pee-yellow with a few bubbles shooting up the beer. Aroma is all-that nasty pilsner-corn, really spot on for European macro and even goes into South American crap lager territory. Taste is a saving grace, by that I mean it’s just very bland. If you look hard enough you could find some sweet apple followed by pear and ends with corn. Low bitterness with average carbonation, light and very watery.
33cl bottled on 29/05/07, small clear Luftansa plastic cup.

Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head. A nice aroma of grassy and grainy notes. The flavor was full of very clean and easygoing hops, some malt, and lots of grass and light Saaz hops in the finish. Very. very quaffable. Nice and simple, but good.

Bottle. Pours a clear light gold with a three finger dense white head. The nose is sweet malt and light hops. Taste is pretty much the same. Medium mouth feel. Not earth shattering, but a refreshing sessionable brew.
