Commercial Description:
This Pilsner is an American Pils with the characteristics of being light in body and color, refreshingly crisp and moderately hopped. Only 2-Row-Barley-Malt, Carapils and light caramel are used for this smooth beer. The bitterness comes from a blend of domestic hops.

Very crisp and refreshing beer. Misses a little something here and there that stops it from being a really good pilsner, but nonetheless, it’s pretty decent. In all honesty the old Falstaff beer is a better Pilsner, and considerably cheaper, it also doesn’t have quite as salty a finish as this Berghoff does. Regardless, this is a fine beer that any fan of pilsners would enjoy.

Medium gold color with a fair head and sparse lacing. Mild malty aroma, slight caramel and spice. Light to medium bodied, slightly sweet malty flavor, a hint of fruitiness with a faint hoppy note in the finish. Nice beer, easy drinking, but it’s curious that they would label this a pils as the similar Berghoff Original Lager is considerably hoppier-I think even Huber Premium may be hoppier. Yea whatever.

This is a pretty decent pilsener, though it pours suprisingly with almost no head. Just a little grainy, but nice. Actually one of Berghoff’s better beers.

Clear yellow color with a white head. Aroma of corn and malt. Flavor of sweet malt. Very watery and drinkable.

Golden and still with a thin veil. Malty sugar aroma. Tangily tart and sweet, but exceptionally crisp with a hint of lemon, but primarily a malty cerealy beer.
