Cordobeer Pilsner

Cordobeer
Spain·German Pilsner
Tap to rate

Fruity and floral, light yet intense: soft, sweet malt balances the hop bitterness, and the finish is refreshingly bitter and dry on a good body, under a creamy head. A clear golden, bottom-fermented Pilsner that Cordobeer also turned into an unusual side product: a soap made with the beer and olive oil.

◐ Taste

Entry is soft and malty-sweet, establishing a full-bodied presence that belies the modest 5% ABV. The mid-palate develops a measured bitterness from the 38 IBUs, neither aggressive nor subdued, while fruity undertones weave through the finish. Hop bitterness and malt sweetness engage in a balanced dialogue across the entire palate.

Serve at 4–7°C

Serve well-chilled at 4–6°C for maximum crispness. A pilsner served too warm loses its defining snap.

Pilsner glass

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.
