Karmeliten Pils
Citrus-like aroma notes from Hallertau aroma hops lead, and the hops stay front and centre on a lean body, with a bitterness that only unfolds fully in the aftertaste. Straw-yellow and brilliantly clear under a stable, fine-pored head, 4.9% ABV from 11.5% Stammwürze. It is served in the brewery's own Pilstulpe glass, shaped to amplify the citrus notes.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Karmeliten 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.
