hopIQ found 10 beers with the same hoppy and bitter character as Bitburger Leichtes. The Leichtes is a reduced-alcohol pils at 2.8 percent, brewed from 7.5 degrees Plato in the hop-accented style of the Premium Pils. Despite the slimmer body it keeps 30 IBU, so the bitterness stands out more clearly than in the full-strength beer. It pours pale gold with a white head. The nose shows grassy, herbal hop notes over light cereal. On the palate it is fresh and brisk, with a faint cracker and bread note from the pale malt, and the finish is dry with a lingering, slightly spicy bitterness. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
