3.1 Old rating - 500ml bottle, pours golden with a good size white head. Aromas & tastes of flora, grass, bread, hay, grain, hints of spice & hops. Medium body. Dry moderate bitter finish

2.8 500 ml bottle. Clear golde, big foamy head. Grassy hoppy notes, bread, hay. Hoppy bitterness, some malty sweetness. Medium to light bodied, lively carbonated, dry grassy bitter finish. Okay!

3.0 깔끔 하지만 가볍지 않은 필스너 맥주. 필스너 특유의 밍밍함 보다는 약간의 홉향이 느겨진다. 하지만 씁쓸한 정도는 아니며 탄산의 쏘는맛은 강하지 않아 목넘김이 좋다.

2.9 50cl bottle from local italian store. Pours nice clear golden color with nice frothy white head on top, good lacing. Aroma is strong on malts and bread, grassy hops. Taste is clean and fresh with malt and grains and a medium intensity, refreshing hops bitter in the finish that kind of stands out with a slightly floral note. Perhaps a little metallic at the end. Kind of light body and watery texture yet nicely done and crisp. Enjoyable german pils.

3.2 Bottiglia. Il gusto al naso viene attratto dall'orzo. La finezza olfattiva è normale e il modo in cui permane è sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido si presenta trasparente. Il colore è giallo dorato. Il corpo è rotondo. L'amaro è pronunciato. La forza gustativa è elevata e la permanenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di pronta beva. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. L'aroma in bocca porta i segni di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, un accenno di resinoso, erbaceo e agrumi.

3.8 Beautiful golden color, medium, white head. Aroma of light malts and fresh, spicy grassy/floral hops. Taste is medium malty, slightly sweet. Hoppiness is pushed a bit forward, really pleasantly spicy and bitter. Medium mouthfeel moderately strong carb. A good balanced Pilsner, nice one.

3.0 0.5 bottle. Traditional flip-top bottle. Golden color with white large and durable beautiful foam. Nice beer. Slightly delicate "lager"aroma of hop grass on a malt basis. The taste is no longer so "Czech pilsner". Sour, with a little hop-bitter, a little astringent green grass, but basically a malt, carbonated refreshing German beer, but not Pilsner. Sweet aftertaste, delicious, slightly sharp beer good little drinking beer. I think they may have their own yeast strain, which is quite characteristic, similar in off-taste to their keller beer. *** 0,5 bottle. Hagyományos csatos-üveg. Szép aranyságra szín, fehér nagy és tartós szép habbal. Ez is szép sör. Picit lageres, malátás alapon komlós füves finom illat. Az ízben annyira már nem "cseh pilseni". Savanykás, kis komló-keserűvel, kis fanyar zöldfüvességgel, viszont alapjában egy malátás, szénsavas frissítő német sör, de nem pilseni. Nem mintha rossz lenne. Édeskés utóíz, finom, picit éleesztős jó kis ivósör. Szerintem saját élesztőtörzsük lehet, ami elég karakteres, hasonló a mellékíze mint a keller-sörüknek.

3.5 Combination of pils and helles taste characteristics in a very balanced way. Very süffig. But afterwards no extra specials. Good for all year. A beer u can do nothing wrong with.

2.8 Bottle 50 cl. Aroma: German hops, only slight hints of malt. Taste: clean, grassy and spicy hop profile + pils malt, not bad.

2.9 0.5 l bottle from 'REWE' (Wyk auf Föhr), best before February 2021. Clear, pale golden with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, moderately grassy-spicy aroma of grains and some straw. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, gently grassy-spicy taste of mainly grains and some straw, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy-spicy and minimally metallic finish. Thin to medium body, smooth and slightly effervescent mouthfeel, lively carbonation. Solid Pils, nothing special but also not too bad.

4.0 marhajól szénsavazott kulmbachi pils, szinte elolvad az ember nyelvén, mint a selyemfagyi.

3.1 [10888-20180911] Bottle. Green leafy grass aroma. Clear, gold yellow body with a quick foamy white head. Sweet grassy straw grains flavour. Medium body. Sweet but still tasty and balanced. (6/3/6/3/13) 3.1 (c/o Niyo, w/ jercraigs, saintsgambit, wilco) Overheard: "Nothing harsher than a ticker."

2.9 (500ml bottle, Berlin. 23 Apr 2020) AROMA: light biscuit, grass/bark, some underlying floral.perfume notes APPEARANCE: relatively light straw yellow, crisp white one finger head, thin layer residual foam, clean and clear TASTE: taste follows the nose. not super malty (or leans towards minimal roasting, so maybe a more pure grain taste), green, grass, slightly woody PALATE: light to medium light body, easy upfront (less astringent than many lagers/pils), slightly creamy in the middle, backend has more of a bite coming from the bitterness but it doesn't last long, so overall quite an pleasant feeling OVERALL: I was expecting a below average experience from the color, but this turned out to be a decent pils. a bit lighter than some, but nicely balanced in its softness and flavor. nothing super special, but pleasant and enjoyable.

3.5 Goldgelb im Glas, unspektakulär im Geruch. Anfänglich typisch Pils, bisschen sanfter und runder, dann nach und nach fruchtiger werdend. Angenehm carbonisiert, unverschämt süffig

3.1 Złote, klarowne,. Piana biała, drobna, obfita. W aromacie przyjemne nuty chmielowe. Pachnie czysto. W smaku wytrawnie, lekko metalicznie. Goryczka niska, spodziewałem się więcej. Ale jest poprawne.

2.7 Bottle from Burg Bieren, Ermelo. Aroma is grainy malt, straw. Flavour is a bit sweetish with a light bitterness. Body is medium. Very average Pilsener.

3.5 Das unpilzigste Pils das ich je getrunken habe. Aber legga. Sämig, leicht würzig, frisch

2.4 # 950; 2/2018. Obilnější ty německýho pilseneru. Hořkost trochu drsnější, pitelnost nižší.

2.6 Bottled. Clear golden colour, medium white head, fair retention. Malty nose with honey, crackers and some grassy hops. Taste of crackers, some subtle caramel, herbal hop bitterness. Light to medium body, fizzy carbonation, slightly hoppy finish. Enjoyable.

2.2 Yellow gold clear color. Low hop and malt aroma with heavy DMS aroma. Taste is fairly good.

3.4 Piwo koloru złotego, klarowne, biała, puszysta pianka. W aromacie delikatnie kwiatowe i owocowe, delikatna ziołowość. W smaku podobnie. Lekka kwiatowość, plus jasne owoce, trochę drożdży i ziołowa goryczka. W sumie pi przejechaniu 900 km wchodzi dobrze.

2.1 Bottle in Grafenwöhr. Tastes like pale malts, light booze, corn, and dough. Light body and low carbonation. Smells like dough, corn, and pale malt.

2.6 got a bottle of vague acquaintances to taste at home popping swing-top cap, thick fat foam, scanty malt aroma, full of sweet and co2 form a solid lager Bottle

2.6 Bottle at Beerdock Leek. Pours a clear golden colour with a medium white head. Aroma of bready malts and subtle German hops. Taste of bready, doughy malts and subtle German hop. Light bodied and moderate carbonation. A dryish, malty finish. A very average Pils. Earlier Rating: 6/29/2019 Total Score: 2.6 Bottle at Beerdock Leek.

3.1 A bit astringent, but not bitter, just a somewhat earthy funk that dominates the beer. D&S Dresden

3.1 Bottle from Edeka - golden color, white head. taste is malty, doughy, medium sweet. medium bitter. not a typical pils, but still nicely flavoured. okay.

1.7 Light gold color. Frothy head. Sewer and sweat in aroma :/ Medium bitterness, low to medium sweetness. Dry in the mouth. Light bodied. I'm calling it "a meh beer".

2.9 500ml flip top bottle from beershop-bg.com, drunk at home on a cold January afternoon. Pours crystal clear with a fairly thin, fast-settling fluffy head, medium lacing and persistent fast-rising carbonation. Gold in colour. On the nose, complex bread, hay and biscuity malts with herbs and floral honey. In the mouth, fairly low carbonation, slightly oily texture, flavours consistent with the aromas, medium bitterness before a short to medium finish with a softly metallic aftertaste. Overall, slick texture and hop presence raise this ever so slightly above the pack.

2.5 Color is clear yellow, middle foam size. Aroma is soapy at start, but later soap notes is gone and aroma becomes barley. Taste is quite usual. Usual german pilsner.

3.0 Smaakvol en verrassend Pils bier. Gelig van kleur met een stevige schuimkraag. Bier is moutig en fris zoet. Heeft een klein beetje iets van citrus in zich.
