Advantages: Clean, crisp and refreshing Disadvantages: Not big on flavour
...tap in the bar was Warsteiner Premium Verum. That being the case, I said to the barman, "One very large, chillingly cold, decidedly wet and refreshingly refreshing glass of your finest ale, my good man, if you please." To which he replied, "Bitte?" "If you have any bitter, great." I said. "But I'll settle for a pilsner." "Ah, you are English" he said, suicidally. But that's another story...... --------
THE POUR --------
Warsteiner pours to a very ... ...frothy, creamy, though short-lived, white head. The head collapsed VERY quickly. There’s a noticable maltiness in the aroma but also a subtle hint of hops with sweet, grainy aromas following through and a little yeastiness to it. The scent is robust but not overwhelming.

Advantages: Its almost-hallucinatory after-effects Disadvantages: Its almost-hallucinatory after-effects
...in this country, we found Warsteiner a rich full-bodied and flavoursome brew, delivering a crisp alcoholic bite whilst remaining refreshing. Each of us consumed several chilled foaming pints in a remarkably short period of time, the result being unpredictably severe difficulties in walking home. Since that partially memorable night, I have encountered Warsteiner on a handful of occasions; it is, quite simply, a superlative product, a great alternative ...
