2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Ceebs25 (465) - Naperville, Illinois, USA - JUL 27, 2008
5 liter keg can. Nothing special about the aroma, grassy weedy hops, and uninteresting pale lager malt, though still fresh. Large white bubbling foam head, some sticky lacing, very translucent, slower but plentiful carbonation, golden straw color. I like the flavor though, balance toward the straw-leafy bavarian hop variety, crisp, clean and light but not watery, above average pale malt balance. Will work for all intents and purposes this evening.

Tried this in a German Restaurant in Buffalo, NY. Love it. Reminded me of the beers I used to drink while stationed in Wiesbaden. Great flavor, aroma, color. Overall, one of my favorite German beers that are available in the US.

Bottle. Full spicy aroma of saaz with an underlying malt sweetness. Light golden straw color, clear with a big white foamy head. Nice sweet flavor complement by full saaz flavor that lingers nicely. Light and pleasant on the tongue.

Spaten Pils is a clear golden lager with a film of a white head. Soft fruit and wood are in the aroma. It smells prickly and a touch sweet with hints of lemon. It is light bodied and a touch gritty like minerals. It is smooth, well rounded in bitterness and shows great balance in flavor. All of the aroma elements are present in the flavor, plus pretzels and cracked pepper. Very drinkable.

Bottle. Clear pale gold with a white head. Pleasant herbal, grainy hop nose. Crisp, grainy, malty pils. Notes of lemon, grass and hay. Ends with a mineral-like lingering hop bitterness. Medium bodied with a smooth texture and moderate carbonation. Overall, solid.
