Bürger Classic

Can from shigadeyo. Poured clear pale color with a medium frothy white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate sweet grainy aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture and soft carbonation. Medium sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. My expectations where met with an above average return.

12 oz can. thanks, suzygreenberg! pours crystal clear pale gold. very light white head. sweet grassy nose. light watery body. a little bit of grass and perfumey flavors on the mid. very subdued.

Light sweet aroma. Light golden with a thin whispy head. Some grass. Barley malt and grass. Don’t get much adjuncts, its nice and clean.A little lemon in finish. If this was my local pale lager I would drink the hell out of it.

5/31/2009: Bürger Beer is back in town! Bürger Classic is like many other fizzy yellow beers, but it is a "hometown classic" and that makes all the difference. That having been said, this is really nothing more than a light, grainy, but refreshing beer. It reminds me of Busch beer or similar, but maybe slightly more fruity or something. It’s hard to say because there really isn’t that much to say to even attempt to differentiate between all of the "pale lagers" available out there. I think that I actually prefer Hudy Delight over Bürger Beer. It just seems to have a little more character and is less fizzy...

I remember drinking Bürger back during my college days when it was the cheapest available beer at many bars for only $1/can! They even used to give you one of those small 6 fl. oz. glasses to pour it into, sip, pour a little more, sip, and so on. Those were the days... Anyways, I’m glad to see that the new Hudepohl-Schenling Brewing Company has brought back both Bürger Classic and Bürger Light. Hopefully they will continue to resurrect all of the old Hudy brands as well as actually bring the brewing back to Cincinnati.

12 fl. oz. can from 12-pack purchased at Bigg’s Hypermarket in Harrison, Ohio. Rating #35 for this beer.

tried this as cans swill of the week one day... kinda reminded me of miller light farily nasty but light flavor.. yet the aftertaste made me wanna yack!

Nice to get a care package with a decent brew like this.Nice golden color,small head that faded quickly,Mild malt aroma with a slight wheaty smell as well as a mild hopping.The taste was definately better then any other A.S. i've had not skunky not watery well yes it was but not in the normal macro sense.The flavor was decent as hell with a light malt hop presence that was very pleseant and well worth the minimal bucks it took to get here i just wish my Bro-In-law had sent more then one.

I’ve been cleaning out the storage room in my basement and built a set of shelves for my beer cellar and have been getting things organized. As a beer can collector, I have cases and cases of cans that I used to trade with. I decided it was time to cull the herd a bit and in going through the cases of cans, came across this full one of Burger. It lists the brewer as Hudepohl-Schoenling in Cincinnati, Ohio. I also see a logo that they are sponsoring some event in ’88. Holy crap, this stuff is 20 years old! Well, into the fridge it goes...

I was expecting the worst when I opened the can. To my surprise, it poured a mostly clear light gold with a sudsy white head that faded to an uneven white film within about a minute. No foul odors, that’s a good sign. Actually some very light hops and sweet malt. The flavor is actually not bad either - sweet malt with some very light hops and even a little sweet lemon. Really not a bad little beer.

Wow!!! another new swill. This doesnt really taste good, too much rotten corn flavor in it. The guy that sold it to me said that it was a staple back in the day in cincinatti. Too much corn though, they need to find a way to tone that down.
