Commercial Description:
In the brewing lexicon, pilsner is the beer of kings and ours is no exception. Southern Tier Pilsner has the spicy aroma and dry finish that ones expects from a fine European lager. But since it’s brewed locally, it’s fresh every time you crack open a bottle. With its pale golden color, light body and clean aftertaste, our Pilsner won’t slow you down even after a few pints. So next time you thirst for a beer with European character, reach for a Southern Tier Pilsner: Der König der Gebräu.

Fruity and a bit metallic aroma. Very lacey. Light colour. Easy drink and fruity, with lemon promient taste and drying, a tad metallic finish. Above-average carbonation. Satisfying summer beverage.Nice balance with understated malt.

This is the best of the few pilsners I’ve had so far. Just seemed to be a very drinkable beer.

(12 oz bottle: Obtained in trade with shadey, thanks Shane!) Now this is an American pilsner I could drink with some frequency. It features a mildly sweet, fairly bready flavor that is wonderfully balanced by a spicy, moderately bitter hops. The nose is strongly dominated by the sweet, bready aromas, with hops being a minor component of the nose in general. Light to medium in body, but the palate is plenty full enough for the style and shows some crispness from the hops. Golden yellow in color and fully cloudy in appearance. The bubbly, off-white head pours to an inch in height, but maintains a thin but complete layer atop the beer for the entire session. Lots of patchy lacing is deposited on the glass. Another solid effort from Southern Tier.

Golden with good head and lacing. Bready malts with an excellently dry pepper hop finish. The prickly carbonation also helps cleanse the sweetness from your palate. I’m not sure how old my bottle is, but it tasted very fresh

Nice golden color,small white head that had a short hangtime then faded to a very slight lace.Light malty aroma with a slight lemony appearance and a mild hop showing.Light malt flavor with a decent hop presence up front and changeing to a slight bitter sweet finish.Very nice brew with lots of good flavor not to much of eather one but fairly balanced and easy to drink.Thanks go to Shadey for sending this brew my way.
