Herbsthäuser Edel-Pils
Edel-Pils is the feinherb pils of Herbsthäuser: light in colour and gently bitter. Three hop varieties go into it, Hallertauer Perle, Hallertauer Spalter Select and Tettnanger, all used as natural hops. Roughly a third of the brewery's hops come from the Tettnang area, the other two thirds from the Hallertau. The beer carries 4.9 % ABV.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Herbsthäuser Edel-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.
