5,0 Original Pils
A bright, blond-golden pils brewed to an original gravity of 11.2° Plato. The taste is fresh and lean, and bitterness leads from the first sip to the finish: clearly present but smooth, more elegant than sharp. At 26 IBU it stays moderate, and with a slim body behind it the crisp, lightly bitter hop character is what defines the beer.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for 5,0 Original Pils
Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.
The tall, narrow pilsner glass preserves carbonation and showcases the golden clarity that defines the style.
Drink fresh and cold. Pilsners do not improve with age — within 3 months of packaging is ideal.
