COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
For over 125 years, Binding has been brewing this traditional beer strictly in accordance with the German Beer Purity Decree of 1516. Delicately hopped with a vigorous, neither sweet nor bitter, taste - a Masterpiece.

Clear straw color with a medium white head. No lacing. Smell is really sweet and sour with notes of a barnyard. Not very appealing. Taste is better than the smell. Clean and crisp with grass and a big bitter bite. Notes of apple. Refreshing. Not too sweet like I find most of these to be. Nothing to write home about but drinkable.

This is just average with a clear pour and not much aroma. The taste is watery with a little hopps and carbonation for a lack luster finish. This is typical of these kinds.

Proof that not all beer from Deutschland is gut. Neither sweet nor bitter, they say in the commercial description. I say, neither here nor there, neither this nor that. Bland as all get out.

A bit better than their "lager" version but still far way of being anything enjoyable. Sweet taste which diminishes fairly quick. Everything else than a "Masterpiece"

Slightly maltier version of the Pils. Goes down easily. True "fluessiges Brot."

DasMollengrab (34) - Berlin, GERMANY - JUL 4, 2011
Quite similar to the Binding Römer Pils, though less hoppy. Medium thin body, mild aromas of orange candy, corn and soy milk, with hints of cinnamon. The finish offers smooth, mild bitterness. Nothing special to this beer, though I find it to be agreeable enough.

A good regional lager. The cheap price is a bit of a giveaway to its quality though.
