Mauritius Pilsener
Lean and feinherb, pale yellow, with an elegant bitter note from fine hopping. The Zwickau Biersiegel 1859 marks the origin of the first Zwickau Pilsener, and the very soft water from the Ore Mountains underlines its finely hopped character. It has 5.0 % ABV from 11 °P and uses only water, barley malt and hops.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Mauritius Pilsener
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.
