Das Pils
Pils was first brewed in Pilsen, by a Bavarian brewer, and Bürgerbräu was one of the first breweries in Bavaria to brew it. A fine hop-blossom nose leads to a slim malt body with full hop aroma, a lively sparkle and a round, unobtrusive hop bitterness in the finish. Pils, 4.9% ABV and 11.2% original gravity, straw yellow.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Das 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.
