Crystal clear and golden like a summer morning, fresh as an ice-cold mountain stream, and wonderfully tart, full of character and flavor – that's how most of us know and love Pilsner. This classic beer style remains one of the most popular brews in Germany today, despite the multitude of exciting, sophisticated, and flavorful alternatives from the craft beer scene. Pilsner is distinguished by its down-to-earth nature: hops and malt are a smooth blend, the list of ingredients contains nothing other than those permitted by the Bavarian Purity Law, and the brew is produced in accordance with centuries-old artisanal traditions. This classic beer is a delight on its own, but also pairs wonderfully with the various facets of German cuisine.
The Pils is a true all-rounder and a welcome guest in our beer glass!
A true representative of this style is the Pilsener from the Eschenbacher private brewery. This fine tipple flows from the bottle in crystal-clear gold and piles up a generous crown of dense, fluffy, white foam. A nose of freshly mown grass entices the first sip. The flavor profile is composed of robust grain, floral meadow herbs, grassy hops, and a tangy hint of citrus fruit. Eschenbacher Pilsener – no frills, simply a good, uncomplicated beer.
