How does Wernesgrüner Pilsner compare to beers like that out of interest? They don't sell it here
Ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice.
I have an Aldi a half mile away. I always thought it was an entirely off-brand sort of super-discount deal. It's been there a while so they must have something going on that works. I'm game.
Aldi was founded in Germany (Albrecht discount) and their main idea is basically to be real tight fisted on everything you can, except product quality and to some extend also regarding the treatment and payment of people working there.Ain't never been there, they tell me it's nice.

AldiThis well-balanced amber ale is brewed with fresh cascade and saaz hops, biscuit malts, moderate bitterness and a touch of roasted caramel in the finish.
Too bad the nearest Aldi is 608 miles from me.
Awesome that you happen to have a photo of it as well. Nice!Wernesgrüner was on tap across the street from where I stayed when working in Porto for 3 months. One of the better beers I've ever had in my life and was sad I never ran into it before or since. Too bad the nearest Aldi is 608 miles from me.

You're crazy. There. I said it.
Ah, what the hell. I always say people should do what makes them happy, so if cloning these brews makes you happy, then go for it.
It never would have occurred to me, in my wildest dreams, to buy Aldi beer in the first place.
The Aldi in Platteville sells New Glarus.
So does every other place. You can't throw a rock 100 feet without hitting a six-pack of Spotted Cow.
Here is the land of Freedom, most grocery stores can't sell beer. So no Aldi's beer for me ( I go to Aldi stores in PA, MD and NJ). I'll reserve my right to start a rant about asinine liquor control laws for another time....

Oh really? At my Aldi it comes in green bottles. That was going to be my one complaint and subsequently the reason why I haven't bought any of it.I would give Wernesgrüner Pils a score of 3.9. I like the breadiness, and it has good mouthfeel. Very hard to pass up at $6.99 for 6 x 330 mL bottles. They were smart enough to use amber bottles to keep it from skunking.

No, now that you mention it, I'm not. I will look again when I go next.It has always been in amber bottles. It still looks just like the picture in post #6 above. Are you sure you are looking at Wernesgrüner Pils?

I'm guilty of picking up a 4 pack of this every time I go to Aldi:

It's nothing crazy, but I think it's good.
