Had in a bottle.

500ml bottle,yellow colour good head,carb first rate.Aroma fresh grain rice and corn like good hops used.Flavour nice bitter mild fruit but crisp citric also its bitter freshness and smooth sweet malt leaves a hop plesantness and crispness a pilsener I think is tops.

On tap under the name Edel-Pils. Clean aroma of pale malt and faint noble hops, just a hint of sulfur as well. Perfectly clear yellow color - I could read the newspaper through this beer, thin white head. Wonderfully balanced flavor of pure malt and hop bitterness. Crisp, clean, and refreshing. The ultimate lawnmower beer. If you can get this on tap, do not pass it up.

500ml bottle. Another fine drop from the worlds oldest brewery. Pale straw in colour with a foamy white head and good carbonation. Clear and sparkling with hoppy citrus notes.

Shocked at the low ratings. Some people just don’t get Bavarian beers I guess. Tried this at the Weihenstephan braustubl in Freising, a gorgeous small town near the Munich airport. Came highly recommended and I forewent trying some of the other brews to sample what I was expecting to be just an average pils. This is not your average pils. Unflitered, and has a characteristic grainy and hoppy flavor. This is a wonderful, beautiful example of the style.

Bottle: Crisp taste, hops on the lower side but still present. Nice bitterness balance and some spiciness.

clear golden colour, fine head and a beautiful lace, dry herbal aroma, medium-bodied, very dry with a decent bitterness, long and dry herbal finish - very nice pilsner

Bottled. Pale golden, creamy head. Dry and lightly grassy. Crisp, soft bready malt character and balanced bitterness. A good, thirst quenching pilsener, perhaps with less than average bitterness.
