Warsteiner Premium Verum

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

More pale-yellow-urine clear colour with a short lasting large bubbled head. Faint yeasty, mown grass hoppy aromas. Medium soft body, with malty faint pop-corn sweet, faint bitter flavours. Soft foamy, weak almost flat finish. Just way tooooo ’wussy’ for my taste. (Rated 26/5/02; Liedolo; Italia)

Billowy white froth; clear straw hue. Sharp fennel and grass hop bouquet over a simple honey and grain malt base. A cutting bitterness throughout is accentuated by the overall dryness. Suitably thin and briskly carbonated with a firm texture.

Pleasantly bittered, accented by the malt structure that may lend some unfortunate astringency.

50 cl bottle, best before 14 May 2009.

Sparkling yellow body with a diminishing white head. Light malt (light bread), moderate hops (grass), light yeast (dough). Moderately sweet, moderately bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, moderately bitter. Very big for a pils. Creamy mouthfeel. This is one of the better pils I’ve had (stella, urquell). The sweet start and dry finish are interesting.

Ho-hum German pils. Pale gold, short head. Light, hoppy nose with some hay-like notes and peaches. Thin bodied, no length. Unremarkable.

all though the aroma was kind of an offensive skunky- malt note. The beer’s flavor was not all that bad. Really smooth and good malt character. Which consistened of corn, bread, and a slight citrus note. kind of a dull apperance.

Bottle poured golden yellow with a decent head, no carbonation. Grassy aroma like a malt liquer. Flavor was like colt 45 just not as bad. Watery body.

An unimpressive example of what has become a favorite style. A cloudy golden wheat beer with nothing distinctive in taste or aroma. Not unpleasant in any way, but we can do so much better.

Clear yellow/golden with a medium sized white head that quickly dissipated. Aroma of hay and hops. Very highly carbonated. Fairly well balanced pilsener with an odd(but not unpleasant) hay/straw finish.

Bottle. Pours pale gold with big white head that reduces to a thin but persistent layer. Tastes of corn, mild grassy hops, and grains. Light and refreshing, but nothing special.
