Pfeffer Hell
Pfeffer Hell is the brewery's everyday lager, brewed to a recipe from Josef Pfeffer, the founder's brother, who first made it in the 1920s as a comparatively light beer to quench thirst during field work. The brewery describes it as particularly mild and lively. Pale barley malt gives soft grain, fresh bread and a light malt sweetness, the hops stay in the background with a faint herbal note, and the finish is clean and short, carried by gentle carbonation.
