The bar I work at recently got a keg of Rothaus Tannenzäpfle Pils, which I’ve never seen on the west coast. It made me extremely giddy because it was a beer we drank a ton of in Berlin, but I wasn’t sure if it’d be as good as I remembered. Turns out it was even better than I remembered! What a perfect beer.
One of my absolute go to beers in Germany, a fantastic pilsner. I haven’t seen it in the US at all.
Can you all get Neumarkter Lammsbräu pilsner? Another phenomenal one, which just happens to be organic.

No glassware but it was pretty tasty while sitting on the pier at Hanalei Bay.
 
Has anyone tried Prima since it was apparently reformulated in the past few months? I was kind of bummed to hear it was changed at all, but it's kind of disappeared altogether in my area anyway so I was only ever able to revisit it (at least fresh) when traveling through Pennsylvania. The changes including lower bitterness are mentioned in this article.
Didn't know it was reformulated but I had one last week and it was really tasty. Definitely a great "keep in the fridge for any day" beer.
 
How’d it compare to palatine?

I enjoyed Palatine much more: it was crispy, clean, and had a nice bitterness. The Sante Pils has an interesting character (from the yeast?), maltier, and lacked a finishing bitterness. It was was a fine beer, but I didn’t want to crush it like Palatine.

First time with this guy. Very, very good.

I don’t know how this won’t be a staple in my fridge all summer. So good.

The little corner pharmacy near my place carries pFriem pils, so I always grab another six pack when I'm running low.

Finally banged some pFriem pils a couple days ago. Confirmed sofaking good. Great hop presence and overall balance.

Since they started canning, it's never not been in my fridge. Just picked up another sixer on the way home today. Canned 5/2/19. It's too good.
