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.

floydian1 (481) - FNQ, AUSTRALIA - MAY 14, 2009
330ml bottle into footed pilsner glass. Pours clear bright yellow with a medium dissipating white head. Nose of buttery grainy malts and light citrus hops. The taste is dry dry dry with a bittersweet malt backbone and finishing with a substantial dry hop bitterness that lingers. Medium body and carbonation. A very refreshing sessionable pilsner worth seeking out amongst the sickly sweet mainstream brands.
