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 Posted March 13, 2021 Moderator 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.
Rucksackfranzose Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 Can recommend Augustiner Dunkles, a very good Dunkelbier.

ThomasK Posted March 24, 2021 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.
Subscriber Coma+ Posted March 24, 2021 Author Subscriber 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.

Always assumed it was Hamburg. Had to Google it as I've never heard about it before... Apparently the name comes from the St. Pauli monastery in Bremen. It's export beer only, not sold in Germany.

I wish some of the crap we have over here was for export only.
Rucksackfranzose Posted March 24, 2021 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.

Good to know, I won't bother looking for it then...

Spike Posted March 31, 2021 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

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 Posted April 1, 2021 Moderator 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.

The colour looks a bit suspect though Could be my AI camera that thought I was taking a picture of a dog or something. Or the lighting in my kitchen. But yea, it's very bright yellow-ish. Not unusually bright for a Pils though.
