Excellent pils from Franken. Received from a friend a 2 liter flippy top growler that was expired. The beer was definitely outstanding due to the appropriate pilsner taste.

Pours a clear yellow with soft, soapy head.
Smell is clean, crisp and crackery with notes of citrus and some floral hints. Quite light.
Taste is clean, crisp and crackery. Light with some herbal and citrusy notes and a moderate bitterness. Very drinkable.
Mouthfeel is medium, well carbonated.
Overall, a very nice pilsner, obviously made with drinkability in mind.

How they describe it on their website:
"Unser Spitzenprodukt aus dem Bierdorf Weißenbrunn.
Ein fränkisches Pils mit spritzigem Trunk und betonter Hopfennote."
or...
"Our top-of-the-line product from the beer-village Weißenbrunn.
A fränkisches Pils with spritzy Drinking and emphatic hop notes."
Appearance: It's a German Pils, and looks like all others, which means clear deep golden under a show white head.
Aroma: Pils malt wafts up and hits you strongly from the glass, and a slight hint of grassy Noble hops.
Flavor:
Up front: Quite a nice bit of bitterness mixed with a little Pils malt flavors, feels almost but not quite peppery in spiciness.
Middle: Again, nice bitterness bite, and some tartness with hints of circusy flavor mixed in.
Back: Yet again, a decent amount of bitterness and Pils malt flavors, sweet toasty, some light grass. Nice.
Aftertaste: Mostly Pils malt sweetness and here... hefty bitterness that borders on pepperiness.
Mouthfeel: Average soft but robust Pils feel in the mouth.
Overall: You could call this the herbste or hoppiest beers I've had from the Franken area. It really lays on the hops but I feel it could be stronger towards the Pils malt sweetness. If you like a hoppy beer, not an IPA-hoppy, but a pure Noble hopped beer with spiciness, peppery-ish, a little grassiness, and very robust bitterness, but that still doesn't even go near "over the top" and stays within a gemütlich bitterness zone, and you're needing too much pils malt sweetness, then here's your beer. It's not a Norther German Pils, for it still rounds the flavor and softens the bitterness bite with splashes of bready, toasty, dare I say crackery sweet Pils malt. mmmm, a 4.3 of 5.
