Steiner Pils
Delicate floral hop aroma meets a finely bitter, feinherb taste: in Steiner Pils a special brewing process brings out the aroma of special hop varieties. 4.9% ABV, 30 IBU, lively on the tongue. Brewed by the Schlossbrauerei Stein, whose brewhouse on the castle grounds is on record since 1489 and whose beers mature in a rock cellar beneath the high castle.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Steiner 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.
