COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Unique in taste. The secret lies in the water, which is still taken from the same well used well over 100 years ago. The water from our well is unusually pure and soft. That allows us to add a touch more hops to create the Friesian-bitter taste that distinguishes Jever Pilsner from any other beer.

Bottle. Pale yellow body with a two-finger white head. Aroma is floral hops, cereal grains. Taste is mild sweetness and mild to medium bitterness. Flavor is grassy, some lemon peel, toasty, biscuit malt. Medium body with fizz that complements the bitterness well. Lingering bitterness on the finish. Good.

inbirraveritas (712) - Budapest, HUNGARY - APR 21, 2010
Színe tükrös arany, a tetején lévő hab szép tömött és viszonylag hosszan tartja is magát, szénsavassága igen élénk. Illatában keveredik a virágos komló és az alsóerjesztésű élesztő. Csípősen indul, egy édes, (nekem) gyümölcsös (alma, körte jellegű) ízzel. Aromája kellemes, virágos, malátás, befejezésében is megmarad az édeskés íz, ezután válik lassan érezhetővé egy enyhe keserű/fűszeresség, mely egyre erőteljesebbé válik, és legvégül száraz érzetet hagy a szájban, mely hosszan megmarad. Egy könnyen iható és jól kiegyensúlyozott pils, mely régebben állítólag jobban "odavágott", szárazabb volt, de nekem így is bejött.

The taste is a bit skunky to start with. The body of the beer is pretty thin, with a thin head and light carbonation. The finish is light, yet a bit bitter on the sides of the tongue.
