A dark yellow beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet and very malted, combined with some hints of caramel. The flavor is dry and very hoppy on a sweet slightly sticky malt and honey background. The hops also lends the beer notes of citrus.

As BBK Pils ... the deep yellow color of a honey mustard with nice tiny-ballooned head. Rich and cookie-dough-based malt with slight starchy finish. I can drink a ton of this stuff.

Really not all that bitter, and there’s a touch more malt than expected. As this beer is from Frankfurt, it reminds me of how I once connected through Frankfurt’s airport and enjoyed some phenomenal wheat beer in the terminal while waiting for my connection. Wish I’d seen the city. Anyway, my bottle reads "BBK Pils" and the hops are grassy and the brew is a bit too fizzy (but typical of the style). Ordinary, I suppose.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20 Emil (6070) - Copenhagen, DENMARK - FEB 7, 2005
Can. Golden colour with a big white head. Malty with some hoppyness in the aroma and a bitter dry taste. Medium body and a bitter finish.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20 Cornfield (5240) - Oak Forest, Illinois, USA - DEC 16, 2004
Mine says "BBK Pils" on the bottle, but I was sent here, so.... Pours a deep yellow color with a white, fizzy head and initial decent carbonation. The aroma is sweet, malty, and grassy. Medium bodies, it tastes sweet and grainy with a good tart hop counterbalance. Oddly, it finishes on a sweet syrupy note.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 SledgeJr (3579) - Omaha, Nebraska, USA - OCT 11, 2004
On tap at a place off Zeil between Hauptwache and Konstablerwache in Frankfurt. The label just said Binding pilsner- no Romer. Not too bad a beer. Very fresh tasting and crisp. Delightfully strong fluffy head atop the footed glass it was served in. Yellow and fizzy with a grainy flavor that works. One could pound a few of these in between apflewines on the Romerplatz.

Cereal! Decent hops, nice and smooth. A bit heavy slightly bitter finish. Brought back from Germany by a friend.
