Something about a quality Bavarian Pilsner gets me going every time! Today we bring hither one of the World’s finest Pilsners from Weihenstephaner, one of the finest brewers. I love the quality of their brews and check out the clarity! George would have been impressed!

Weihenstephaner Pilsner is (of course!) brewed under the Reinheitsgebot, the Beer Purity Law of 1516. That’s really limiting – Water, Barley and Hops. Later Yeast added once they figured it out! At 5.1% ABV, this Pilsner is right in the middle of the prime Lager ABV zone (notice I didn’t say “sweet zone” not to confuse the pedestrians out there!)

One thing that’s not pedestrian is the flavor of these 100% malt brews. No rice, corn, potatoes, stale breadcrusts, cornflakes, pumpkin, oysters, molasses or syrup in this brew, nosiree! Nothing but 100% Continental Barley and Hops. “Them 16th Century folks” knew where it’s at! Love it!

Trinken Sie Ihr Pils, bevor es jemand anderes tut! Prost!

I picked up a few things at Total Wine today, including one I haven't had in a long time. I was inspired by one of @Beermeister32's recent posts and got a sixer of Sapporo Premium. I remembered that I even have the appropriate glass tucked away in my cabinet.

Very rich maltiness, quite delicious.

HB West Coast DIPA. It's been on tap for a bit over a week, no efforts made to clarify it. I should really have fined it but meh.

When I was in Austin a couple of weeks ago, multiple people said I needed to try that, but none of the places I was ending up at were friggin serve it.
