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).

Aldrighetti (162) - Coltura, ITALY - JAN 24, 2004
Bottled. Straw yellow colour, low persistant white head with unequal size bubbles. Moderate hoppy aroma (flowers), light malty (honey, cereal, corn). Taste is light sweet, moderate bitter (herbal), almond aroma/taste in aftertaste, a bit metallic feel after few seconds. Thin, light body, dry texture. On tap, unpasteurized version: fresh, flowery aroma of hop, clean maltyness (honey). Light sweet (honey), round, smooth herbal bitterness than bottled. The rating of the draught one is: [5][3][6][3]-[12]

Anonima Pils semi-industriale...amaro nel finale godibile...un piccolo passo avanti ad heineken and co.

Probably the best italian pilsner on tap, except for a couple of microbrewery-scene ones maybe.

Highvanhoe (3) - NETHERLANDS - AUG 13, 2006 does not count
A bitter pilsener with a bad nose, but enjoyable enough for a week in Italy.

Luigimarroni (1) - USA - DEC 29, 2010 does not count
Birra fatta bene , ma con poca personalità , beverina e secca. Da bere prima di mangiare.
