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.

UPDATED: AUG 15, 2008 12 oz bottle. clear pale golden with frothy white head. Grainy pale malt aroma with spicey hop notes and a touch of green bottle syndrome. Pale sweet malt flavor is quickly attacked by some spicey hop flavor and bitternes. Body is light and well carbonated. Finish is dry with good residual spicey hop flavor and bitterness.

Pours a pale yellow nice amount of head that goes away and leaves little lacing i really liked this brew it gave me something you can taste the hops dancing on your tongue and a slight bitter as it goes down and its not overly carbonated i would definitely do this one again

50 cl Can. Oh, this is how I remember beer tasting when I first began drinking it. Very herbal taste with a great bitterness. Some citrusy flavours too. Highly drinkable!

500ml Can - Pale golden in colour with a colour. Grassy and grainy aroma with some malt. Clean tasting with a satisfying bitterness and a malty taste. Not bad for this style.

Bottled at Zeitgeist (Jolly Gardener) in Vauxhall. I first tried this on draght in Luebeck, Germany in 1982. This was the first non british beer that had really impressed me. I had not realised that a lager could be so smooth and packed with fresh flavours. I don’t think that it is anything like as bitter as it used to be, but it is still a good beer.
