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.

(Flasche) Es hat eine sonnengelbe Farbe. Es ist klar filtriert und hat eine weiße Schaumkrone. Das Aroma ist primär malzig mit würzigem Hopfen. Im Geschmack kommt zuerst sie schlanke Bittere, die recht stark ist. Im Hintergrund ist minimal Süße. Im Abgang ist Bittere, im Nachgeschmack nichts. Zusammengefasst ein süffiges Pils.

Did I mention that I love pilseners? This one was IMO wonderful.It was one of the palest I can remember. Lighty hoppy and fruity aroma. Light crisp taste and felt so good in my mouth that I can’t wait til the next one.

Hugi (116) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - JAN 16, 2012
From a can. Clear yellow with a medium head. When you open the can, you can already notice an aromatic hoppy smell. In its taste its quite bitter and dry with malty notes. The carbonization is a bit flat.

callmemickey (710) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA - JAN 12, 2012
A: Light golden body. Minimal head with little lacing. S: Clean floral, grassy hop bitterness dominates. T: Like the nose, this beer is dominated by a clean, floral, grassy hop bitterness. Slight breaded malts in the background. M: Light body, heavily carbonated. Refreshing. O: Overall a very solid german pils. A solid, refreshing beer for a nice warm day. Not as complex as what the american craft brewers have been pulling off with this style, but a good find nonetheless.

edpeg (254) - Berlin, GERMANY - JAN 11, 2012
Light yellow in colour. Aroma malty. Taste sweet malty, some grass. And naturally long hopped bitter end, the trademark of Jever. Although the start of the style is boring the long bitternes makes this always a could choice a pils. Drinking this warm can also gives out more nuances.

darkseduction (348) - Zweibrücken, GERMANY - JAN 9, 2012
Bottle 33cl. Nice clean crisp pilsener with a beautiful hoppy nose and that refreshing malty underline. One of the better industrial german beers that still has its own character preserved.
