COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The classic Bitburger - a mature and most agreeable beer - is brewed with the best of ingredients in the same traditional way it has been for many, many years. The result is delicately tart and pleasantly bitter - with a strong hop taste.

FROTHINGSLOSH (3977) - GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA - MAY 17, 2013
Sampled from a 16.9 oz can this beer poured a very pale yellow color with an enormous soapy yellow-white head that lingered forever and left decent lacing. The aroma was perfumey and grassy and had no depth. The flavor was bitter, tangy, perfumey and grassy with hints of yeast, pepper and bubblegum. Long bitter perfumey and grassy finish. Not good.

PriorL (260) - BELGIUM - MAY 10, 2013
Bottle at home. Appearance: clear blonde beer, stable white head. Nose: malt, oranges, rather dry, malty. Taste: lemon, yeast, metal. This is a regular German pilsener in my opinion. Nothing wrong with it actually, but lacks lots of taste. But rather balanced!

bonkiedeaap (31) - Leerdam, NETHERLANDS - MAY 7, 2013
Bought a 500ml can at the supermarket. Has a aroma of corn and honey. The beer has a yellow/golden color, has a large white head and is highly carbonated. Taste of honey and hop, is a little sweet and has fresh and a little bitter afterdrunk. This beer is as good as Warsteiner, the only difference is that this beer is little more bitter.

Mr_Vogel (54) - NETHERLANDS - MAY 7, 2013
Prefer this over Warsteiner, but the cans are to be avoided. Canned, this beer is skunk all over. Bottled makes a decent pilsner. Very watery, but very drinkable. Finish is dry, which is a plus.

Flaska från SB. Guldfärgad med mjukt vitt skum. Söt arom med inslag av gräs, lime, krusbär och örter. Maltsötma och svag beska i smaken. Lättdrucken.

Kurtos (35) - Sydney, AUSTRALIA - APR 29, 2013
Bottle. Pours a pale straw colour. Aroma. Aroma, sweet floral aroma with some notes of off bread. Taste. The flavours delivers a nice bitterness on entry and in aftertaste, can taste some bitter lemon and also some grain and herbal flavours, the only thing i find that sticks out is the bitter lemon though not by much. Overall. This is beer is quite bland, whilst at the same time retaining plenty of flavour.
