COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Pils of the Premium class. The yardstick for quality and its high level owes it to the large brewing experience and the delivered prescription from noble raw materials.

pivnizub (7239) - Bochum, Porúří, - JUN 29, 2006
Bottle: Pale golden, medium-sizer, lacing, quite firm head; cardboardy nose, grainy and doughy too; sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; bitter finish with a little bit of aromatic hoppyness. Rather uninspired Pils............

Kristall-König (1642) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - JUL 7, 2011

jonas (4613) - Garching b. München, GERMANY - OCT 15, 2010
Bottle. Crisp hoppy aroma. Yellow, fine carbonation, creamy head. Smooth malty entry, hard water saltyness, Fine aromatic hop profile. Fullbodied, chewy, fruity malt, feels a bit more like a nice hoppy Helles, but that is semantics - this beer is thoroughly enjoyable.

jfb (1628) - GERMANY - APR 3, 2010

yngwie (9204) - Kristiansand, NORWAY - OCT 28, 2009
Bottle. It pours a clear, almost golden body under a minimal white head. Pale malts and some fruityness in the aroma, pretty straifht forward and rather boring. The flavor is much the same, lacking on both fruityness and hoppy bitterness I think. Medium body, dry. Some bitterness in the finish, and also some metallic notes. Nothing to see here, move on. 090821
