Style: Pilsener
Winklarn, Germany

Serve in Flute, Footed Pilsner

Bottle (purchased at the Brauerei): Golden, a bit unclear, grainy to herbal-medical nose; medium-sized, lacy white head; moderate bitter-sweet flavour; slightly lingering bitter-sweet finish. O.K., but not very Pilsner-like....

Bottle. Danke Günther. Hazy green golden, fluffy white head. Light grainy malt aroma, grassy, earthy hops. Mineral base, straw malt, medium body, ok chewyness, light herbal/metallic hop profile. Rough, but moreish.

bottle, kindly donated by pivnizub - Cheers! Clear pale yellow colour, mid-sized white head. Hoppy nose. Solid malty base with herbal-resiny hops. Long and dry hoppy finish.

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a big and blond foamy head. Slightly strawy malty and herbal, slightly spicy hoppy aroma with a tinge of draff. Moderately bitter flavour with a light but rounded malty sweetness, light to medium bodied with a crispy carbonation. Soft pale malty taste with herbal hoppy accents; bitter-sweet, slightly draffy and herbal hoppy finish. As all of the Betz beers this one is not a world-class gem but is very suitable as a decent and solid session beer. 14.VIII.10

The brewery almost looks like a ruine, but beer is still brewed (for how long ?!). Creamy head. Hayaroma. Barnyard. Hopbitter, oily, hay-like flavor. Apple and orange. Rather a dirty aftertaste, but the pils has lots of flavor and is not without some quality.
