Zillertal Pils
The brewery presents this as the first pils brewed in Austria. It pours pale gold and stays slim through the glass: citrus and grassy notes in the nose, a hint of elderflower, then a dry finish with light bitterness and a faint honey tone underneath. Original gravity is 11.7 degrees Plato. Sold in returnable bottles and in kegs from 15 litres up.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Zillertal 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.

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.
