Had this on a cool spring evening out back. Refreshing and crisp, but probably better in the summer heat. Solid import though.

That's a great call, it really shines cold in July, but always welcome after yard work or grilling.
Game night pick. Stays light but still has a good bite for a pilsner, felt right with pizza and cards. Wish it was sold in bigger bottles honestly.

Glad you enjoyed Tannenzapfle with the game! If you want something a little bigger, check out the Gaffel Kolsch next time.
