Tap to rate

Lady Bitta is one of the brewery's first two beers, brewed since its opening in November 2017. Natural and light gold under a fine white head, she smells of a fruity-grassy hop note that never turns pushy. The entry is slim and dry, the bitterness pleasant, the palate creamy-soft, full-bodied and refreshing. This Pils won its category at the Austrian Beer Challenge 2019 and took bronze in Brussels that year.

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.

What is a German Pilsner?

Pilsners are crisp golden lagers with 4–5.5% ABV and IBU 25–45. Defined by spicy, floral Saaz hops over a light malt backbone — bright carbonation and a dry bitter finish.
