Their Brewers Gold looks very good though, that amber colour, but I haven't tried it yet... @Tommy? @Rucksackfranzose? Have you tried that one? I'll get to it and report back asap.

Moderator Tommy 12,633 Posted March 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 13, 2021 I have failed to obtain Warsteiner's Brewers Gold so far. Neither Rewe nor Edeka had it. But I know where I can get it, and I will report back next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasK 3 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Becks is a good choice. Mild lager and sold in the UK and Ireland and in lots of other countries too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coma 1,766 Posted March 24, 2021 Author Share Posted March 24, 2021 Saw some old bottles of St. Pauli Girl in an antique shop over the weekend. Didn't realize that was brewed in Bremen. Always assumed it was Hamburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's export beer only, not sold in Germany. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rucksackfranzose 4,410 Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Bought a few bottles Warsteiner Brewers Gold- had two with lunch and can say it's not a beer I'll purchase again, too malty and too little hop for my taste. Tasted a little like that old Blockmalz candy, only not as sweet,. Thinking of it a Malzbier without sweetness is a much more fitting comparison.

Spike 5,107 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 @Tommy couldnt find your düsseldorf beers mate. unfortunately bavaria = germany in america, i ma not complaining that every other bavarian brewery is available but it sucks for the rest of the states/regions/whatevers. well kölsch is also easy to get, i did try schnieder weisse doppelbock though, its a solid doppelbock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colour looks nice. First taste was okay. But very malty indeed. Generally just tasted like a polished Warsteiner. And you know what they say about polishing a turd.

Moderator Tommy 12,633 Posted April 1, 2021 Moderator Share Posted April 1, 2021 Okay, here we go. @nudge's wishes are very important to me. Mild, but very drinkable. Süffig as we'd say in German. Something you'd enjoy in a beer garden at 30 C°. Definitely better than Warsteiner Brewers Gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not unusually bright for a Pils though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
