Legende 1901
A Kellerpils that picks up Iserlohn's first Pils, brewed in 1901, and the original Pils of 1842. Aroma hops bring floral, grassy notes and an assertive bitterness, set against pure malt aromas. Cool fermentation and six weeks of cold lagering round it off, and the finish has real character. 5.1% ABV, brewed in the Grüner Tal in Iserlohn.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Legende 1901
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.
