Moritz Fiege Pils
Moritz Fiege has brewed its Pils since 1926, and it remains the brewery's flagship. Herkules provides the bittering, while Perle, Tettnanger and Saphir are added for aroma, over a base of Pilsner malt with a small share of caramel malt. The beer pours pale gold and clear. The nose shows herbal, lightly floral and spicy hop notes over bready malt; the palate is crisp with a gentle grainy sweetness and a firm, drying bitterness that lingers into a clean finish.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Moritz Fiege 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.
