König Pilsner
Thursday, April 10th, 2008
The German pilsners are certainly flooding the Australian bottle shops but there is nothing wrong with that. König Pilsner is another beer that is brewed and bottled by our beer loving friends in Germany at the König Brauerei and wholly imported into Australia by the Australian Beer Connoisseurs company.
The König Brauerei was founded in 1858 by Theodore König in the lower rural community of Beeck and since then it has flourished with ever increasing product demand and supply. In July of 2004 the König Brauerei became a full subsidiary of the Bitburger Braugruppe and not surprisingly the labeling on the König Pilsner looks very similar to that of the Bitburger Premium Beer which can be seen in the picture below.
This German pilsner has a sweet malt aroma and clear golden appearance typical to pilsner beers. Its taste is light and refreshing with a finish of hops bitterness and overall this is a smooth beer to drink. König Pilsner is a relatively cheap brew and you can currently pick up a carton for $39.90 at 1stChoice. I suggest you give this pilsner a go as you won’t regret it, I didn’t.
