Kind of an obscurity here
Pours out a clean light clear golden tan colr, light fluffy head providing some inital interest, looks like a good Pils
Light bready malt aroma, some mineraly water aromas, light yeastiness, bitter hops, not really very complex, but pretty standard as Pils go.
Flavor is pretty watery. A little nuttines from the malts come through,almost something akin to a flitered Zwickel, light biscuity note, but hops are extremly restrained it is hard to pick them out.
Mouthfeel is very light, medium carbonation. it was an interesting new brew to try, but falls rather short of my expectations, luckily theres a whole new world of brews to try in Germany!

A golden yellow beer with a small head.

Smell is strong malty with a doughy whiff. There is a hoppy smell that smells a bit artificial.

Taste is malty with a little biscuit and some sulfuric notes. The bitterness is medium and the hops are extract. Drinkability is good. Mouthfeel is medium and just a tiny bit sticky on the lips.

Die Frische der Natur is the motto of this 5th generation brewery that was founded in 1860. The Hofgut-Pils pours up a medium bubbled head that billows slightly over a clear gold elixir. The nose features soft malt and grain with a mild hop background. In the background I was able to pick subtle hints of oxidation(cardboard) as well as hint on diacetyl. The upfront bitterness is crisp but well balanced against the malty sweetness. Bitterness continues over the tongue and lasts in the lingering finish. Soft malt tones are dominating and grain is also present. The hop flavor is mild but very spicy. Overall it is a nice Bier but too mild for my liking.

Zum Wohl!!!
