COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Why should we strive constantly to try to improve an already excellent flavor ever? It is one of our strengths, we can recognize that when a product perfected and completed in flavor. We believe in modern continuity and stability as strengths of Krombacher - constant in quality, resistant to the taste. An achievement that we will not sacrifice lightly. The Christmas Song tells the quietly resting at sea, as we feel it with our beer. In peace lies both the strength and the indulgence.

Nature has provided us with its mountain spring water ® richly rewarded. We also feel this as a mandate and responsibility to consider also Krombacher Pils as a gift and preserve this jewel of nature pure. The mountain spring water ® is the most important component for the unique quality and distinctive taste experience of a Krombacher lager. A Krombacher stands for naturally fresh beer enjoyment and a fine, spicy aroma. How many generations in the future, our passion is the preservation of this achievement.

Appearance: pale golden color, crystal clear, big white head Aroma: not much here, wheat Taste: just a hint of bitterness at the finish, kind of bland, wheat Palate: medium feel on the tongue, light bitter aftertaste Overall: just a highly drinkable beer, not a lot of flavor to it, nothing bad about it unless you're looking for a lot of flavor or complexity ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Straw colour with little head. Aroma of diacetyl, not much flavors, thin body, some bitterness in the finish.

zenkis (300) - Ogre, LATVIA - JUN 15, 2013
Pours dark golden with white top, light lacing. Aroma - some bad smell mixed with sweet malts. Taste is most enjoyable - minimal sugary sweet with good above medium bitter - a bit reminds strong pils, but without annoying sweetness. Medium bodied, thick palette. Matured for three more month in cupboard. Must re-rate.

CanCrusher (316) - Ilirska Bistrica, SLOVENIA - JUN 4, 2013
Bottle 0,33L. Clear golden colour with medium big and long lasting, white head. Light and somehow mild aroma of bready malts. Taste is light sweet at the start with caramel note, while aftertaste goes a little bitter. Very mild mouthfeel, medium body and oily texture. Although I’m not a pils lover, this one is pretty good. Thanks to Kita for this one.

Draft. Aroma is of raw grain and skunk beer. Appearance is golden with a little white head. Taste is a skunked pilsner... That's about it. Palate is skunky. Overall, I expected a lot more from this beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

shorlin (451) - St. John’s, Newfoundland, CANADA - MAY 28, 2013
Big solid pilsner head, nice looking colour for the style. Decent aroma, kind of grassy maybe. Taste is really not very good, quite weak, metallic. Not a big presence, no real good finish.

DeanF (1602) - Nunavut, CANADA - MAY 25, 2013
Weakish white head and golden body with modest carbonation. Aroma is cardboard and bread, some fusel sweetness. Flavour is bitter cardboard with a tinny lip-wrenching finish. This is one bad pils.

Brainiac (91) - Riga, LATVIA - MAY 18, 2013
0.5l can. Good malt, little too much carbonised. Not too bitter, short aftertaste, small body.

It's a pilsner. Rather uninspiring. Lightly hopped, ends slightly sweet. Decent. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

hens (235) - Tallinn, Estonia, ESTONIA - MAY 8, 2013
0,5L bottle. Light hop aroma. Quite technical weak hop taste. Light watery drink like beer. On finish felt some ginger sweet bitter. Best part of this beer.
