330 ml bottle. From bierzwerg.de.
Hazy pale yellow colour with small white head. Aroma is grainy malt, fruity and herbal hoppiness and some mild sourness. Flavour is fruity hoppy with citrus, some herbal notes and malty body. Fruitiness reminds of Pale Ales. This really hits the spot.

24x33cl, local Edeka - I consider this, not their Gold/Diplom Pils Waldhaus’ true contribution to SW-German pils culture, although it comes with a few caveats. Btw "Extra herb" is a SW-local speciffication, and a bit of a joke if you are familiar with N-German pilsners, Jever-style. Palatable mix of hop freshness in the nose and malt dryness: fresh peppery/grassy/mildly piney hops, dry malt backbone with a fair amount of yeasty froth, appealing cloudy body. This is full of taste, but not really thirst-quenching as a "pils", it is too dry & yeasty for that. This beer/brewery was initially a revelation when I moved to the land of Rothaus and Ganter, but now, even with a case in the cellar, I usually have 2 max., just for taste, as it leaves my mouth cardboard dry!

Bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also, zippy, nice head. Starts hoppy and dry, a bit sourish, bitter, not too much. Finish well balanced, more spicy, a bit sweet. Great beer!

bottle from Bierzwerg, Hazy pale yellow colour, large and very persistent white head. Slightly yeasty, grassy-hoppy nose. Light-bodied, shy malty background with hints of yeast, pleasant hop flavours are there: grassy, hoppy, resiny and with shy citrus hints. Very nice.

Bottle 330ml. @ home.

(bottle) pours a hazy yellow colour with a greenish tinge and a tall frothy white head. aroma of straw, grainy pale malts, slightly yeasty and peppery, with notes of floral hops and a hint of grapefruit zest. flavour is initially slightly fruity, with traces of bubblegum which gently fade into graininess, notes of marzipan and a herbal hoppy bitter finish. full-bodied with lots of character and average carbonation.

330ml Bottle. Appearance is cloudy, yellow color with medium, off-white head. Aroma is full Pilsner with strong pale malts and herbal hops. Taste is similar with pale malts and herbal hops dominant along with some mild citrus and apple flavors. Palate is medium-bodied, smooth texture, average carbonation, and a dry finish. This unfiltered version of their Pilsner is definitely a delight to drink.

Bottle 33cl, a clear yellow beer with medium head. Nose is hopy, aroma is malty, even toasted like, very dry with intense grassy hops ans bitterness. Finish is dry too with peppery and floral hops very bitter, ok but a bis sharp.

(bottle, 33cl) Cloudy, yellow colour with a big foamy white head. Citric, lemony and flowery hoppy aroma with a mildly yeasty and pale malty background. Moderately bitter flavour with a soft malty sweetness, rather light bodied with a crisp carbonation. Quite slim pale malty base with yeasty accents and a good dosage of mostly citrus-fruity noble hops; dry, mildly malty and slightly bitter finish with citric and slightly herbal hops. Nice, but the expectations were really high. 08.IX.10

Bottle: Pale golden, "milky" with a greenish sheen, stable and lacy white head; distinctive aromatic hoppy nose, almost piney; fruity-yeasty and malty flavours in the background; pretty light bodied, moderate bitter-sweet flavour; slightly lingering hoppy and pale-malty finish. Fine brew, unfortunately very thin......
