Serve in Flute, Footed Pilsner

Clear yellow with thin head. Hoppy & grainy aromas. Barnyard earthy & bitter flavours.

Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of Bov. Clear pale yellow with a decent head. Reminiscence of chestnut, honey, hay, faint lime and sugar puffs. Grainy and buttery. Diacetyl? Perhaps not very fresh. Quite a lot of bitterness but without much aroma hops or bittering hops being present. Very north german. Thanks Bov!

50cl bottle at home. Light coloured and like a lot of pilsener doesn’t keep its head long. Aftertaste a bit bitter and overall not a very remarkable beer

Pale yellow, tiny head. Grainy breakfast cereal aroma. Simple light grain taste, milky and breakfast cereal grains. Finish simple and the grains remind me of corn. Not good, but at least refreshing.

500 ml bottle. From Hilden, Germany.
Clear pale golden colour with small white head. Harsh hoppy and hay malty aroma. Grainy hay malty flavour with harsh hoppiness and some metallic notes. Bitter earthy hoppy aftertaste.

Bottle. Creamy white good mostly lasting head. Pale yellow colour. Moderate malty and light hoppy grassy aroma. Light bitter flavor. Average moderate bitter finish. Watery palate.

Distributor tasting. To me, another pilsner. Nothing sticks out. Nothing great. Basic taste.

Bottle, bought @ Ambrosetti, Berlin.
Pours clear golden with a slight green hue, rather large, fluffy, white head. Aroma is citric, some sweet maize-like malts and a touch of grassy hops. Medium carbonation, fine enough mouthfeel. Flavour is realtively bitter, some hay and herbalness to it. Fine, but rather sweet malts base. Relatively crisp and drinkable. Definitely better than its RB average.
