COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Very Important Pils, per raffinati cultori della birra, per coloro che amano la particolarità. Il nobile sapore amaro, per tradizione in questa tipologia volutamente accentuato, il finissimo perlage e la superba schiuma concorrono a fare di Forst V.I.P. Pils una birra signorile ed elegante, una V.I.P. per V.I.P. Particolarmente beverina, questa birra è un ottimo aperitivo. Con il suo gusto secco e il raffinatissimo profumo di luppolo essa prepara corpo e mente all’assunzione del cibo. Birra elegantissima, frutto di sapienti miscele dei migliori malti e luppoli Saaz, per le sue qualità ben si merita l’appellativo di V.I.P. (Very Important Pils).

LordCorkscrew (1737) - Ronco Scrivia (GE), ITALY - APR 15, 2008
UPDATED: AUG 29, 2008 Una piccola delusione in bottiglia da 33cl (comprata al Drink Shop di Nave); aroma non spiacevole e piuttosto luppoloso anche se con qualche intermezzo cerealicolo. Corpo acquoso però, e sapore anche se un poco più pungente non molto diverso dallo standard di pils commerciali meno quotate (Pedavena). // AGGIORNATA: bevuta molto spesso in questa mia vacanza montana, alla spina, soprattutto a Merano (al birrificio) e a Malles Venosta (in un pub Forst); tutta un’altra birra: floreale e raffinata pur nella sua beverinità e con una luppolatura profumata e gustosa. Ci sarebbe da dare due voti differenti...

Bottled at an Italian restaurant in Munich. Pours clear golden yellow with medium tight bubbles. Fresh mashtun/malted aroma with sugar. Sweet malts with a light hop bitterness. Decent.

Liking these beers from Italy that i got in Halifax. still true to the style of a pils but very quenching and flavourful at the same time, kinda herbal flavor but still good.

OKBeer (1168) - Halifax, Nova Scotia, CANADA - FEB 12, 2007
Bottle. Straw colour with a mostly diminishing frothy white head. Corn, honey, DMS aroma. Toasty malt flavour with a perfumed bitter finish. Light to medium bodied, smooth. Decent flavour compared to the lacking aroma. Very important? Not so much.
