Trumer Pils

Brewed by Privatbrauerei Josef Sigl
Style: Classic German Pilsener
Salzburg-Obertrum, Austria

Very very pale and light rendition of a pils here. Call it Pils Urquell Light. Just take 12oz of Pils Urquell, add 12oz of seltzer water and this is what you get.

Had this one on tap in Salzburg, Austria. Nice light flavor. Goes down easy and really cleanses the palate. Golden color with the slightest bite on the after-taste.

12 oz. bottle. Very pale. decent white foam, shows good conditioning. Fresh pale sugar smack malt, medium to light bodied, clean bitterness and slight noble hop flavor. Fairly soft yet with a little twang o’ crispness. Better than the draft version I’ve tried.

Served in a lovely tower glass from the tap. Golden color with adequate head. Light ester, sulfur, and sweetness in the nose. Flavor of sweet, estery malt and again sulfur. Not impressed.

Pours a light gold with a soapy white head that lasts a while. Grainy aroma with hints of citrus. Slightly sweet flavor with a touch of citrus and a slightly bitter finish. OK brew.

Draft at Oregon Brewers Festival, Portland, OR. White small head that mostly lasted, spotty lacing, very little carbonation observed, transparent, and a pale yellow hue. The nose was malty, grainy notes, and lightly hoppy. The flavor was semi-sweet, malty and lightly hoppy. Tingly mouthfeel and light-medium body. Definitely not impressed with this brew as it is weak for the style which was a turnoff. Not one that I will have again.

Bottle from BevMo. Pours a clear yellow color with a small white head. Grainy aroma. Slightly sweet, with some acidity. Clean grain and malt up front. A little butterfly kiss of hoppy bitterness in the finish. Pretty nice simple and clean pils. Thankfully it wasn’t skunked. I guess this was brewed in Berkeley.

Thisis a good, clean, crisp, yet also very tasty, pilsner with a nice bitterness and malty flavour. It is gold, rather bubbly, with a fairly large, but somewhat bubbly and slightly airy head (but even & good-looking) that steadily dissipates to a thin long-lasting top and leaves only hints of lace. The aroma is at first striong sweet grain, with grass and herbs. The taste has a light but definite malty grain body with a consistent herbal-grassy hop flavour and bitterness, with a lasting light hoppy finish that lingers. It’s not bursting with flavour, but it’s a great choice for a light, crisp, very clean pilsner that has a good bite and still has good taste.
