Eisenbahn Organic Pilsner – Brazil 4.8%abv

11.2oz light brown bottle. Freshness date stamped on bottle.

It pours a shiny golden yellow with a firm snow-white head on top with lots of sticky and trailing lacing.

It smells mostly of fresh cut dry hay with a nice whiff of sweet malt. A mild lemony citrus aroma comes and goes, forcing me to continue sniffing at the glass.

The malt has a light caramel sweetness and a little nutty taste, which lays a balanced platform for the edgy citrus and mildly metallic hop bite. A taste of sweet limes is noticed in the finish. Mild balancing herbal notes are just the right touch.

This is a world-class Pils. I’ve heard it has entered the US market but have yet to actually see it.

Lammsbrau Organic Pilsner

Neumarkter Brewery, Bavaria Germany
Certified Organic Hops (Nobels) and Barley, Deep well Mineral Water 4.8%abv

Pours a hazy gold color with a medium-sized snow white head along with loads of sticky, clinging lacing.
The aroma has that typical Nobels hops, light citric, cut hay, herbal nose to it. Whiffs of basil and parsley come to mind.
The malt body has a very clean and well-rounded mouth-feel. A light malty sweetness balances nicely with the subdued metallic and lightly citrusy hop bite. There’s just a hint of a ginny alcohol fuminess.
This is a very important brew not only because it’s organic, but because it rivals the very best of the style while maintaining its purity. Nice Brew! Bummer it comes in a green bottle. Who doesn't know green bottles are inferior to brown bottles in filtering out harmful sunlight and florescent lighting?
