Mildly hopped even for the style. A bit of a skunky aroma. Blond colored. Medium mouthfeel. I've heard the brewery's other beers are much better.

Green tea notes and very bitter. This pils requieres a lot of water to wash it down with. Otherwise you will have the nasty bitterness in your mouth for at least a couple of days.

Light colour with quite good head. Neutral pilsener aroma. The flavour is very hoppy and crisp and the aftertaste is very bitter.

Grainy and malty aroma. Golden, white head, good lace. Some bitterness, light herbal and tea, bit thin, kind of plain. More bitter in the finish, dry and certainly tea.

Hmm. One would think this was an herb beer from its name, however, the Sailer website doesn't list any herb as an ingredient. Therefore, it's impossible to explain the nasty bitter (perhaps herbal?) flavor other than to say that the beer just mega crisp, bitter and certainly an acquired taste. Frothy head looks great but fades fast. This brewery's Jubel and Altenmunster Premium are sensational.

lots of rusty old tea in there and plenty of bitterness. some green tinge. quite a mild aroma and texture

Earth and nut aroma. Usual pils appearance. Nutty taste quite hoppy but slightly watery. Not keen on the after taste at all.

Pours with a big frothy head, pale amber hue, hoppyish nose, hoppy with nutty undertones, reasonable lacing, good pils.

Yeasty nose of barn, perfume, flowers, and subtle cereal malt. Pours from the bottle a light golden with small particles. The average fluffy white head that is mostly lasting with fair lacing. The brew is balanced and light with low acidity. The finish is malty and sweet. The light and lively body is watery and finishes clean.

Decent if unremarkable
