Pours golden amber with a thick white head. Aroma of bready malt. Taste has nicely hopped bread notes, smooth. Palate has grassy hop notes. Pretty good.

Hay-like aroma. Form hopbitter grassy flavor. Grassy bitter aftertaste. This beer for me is a relic from the former DDR-period, when it took hours to pass the BRD-DDR-border near Eisenach and the DDR-Czech border in the Zinnwald under Dresden. You had to be afraid of Vopo’s, you needed visa just to pass the border and had to buy Ostmarke, but they were virtually worthless. I will never forget the friendliness and hospitality of the East German people just before and after the Wende. This firm and tasty Radeberger pilsener is a way to remember those days.

500 ml bottle. Clear golden, foamy head. Citrus, bitter hops, hay. Metallic bitterness. Light bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, dry bitter finish. Just okay macro Pils.

Served a .5 l on tap at an outside bar in downtown Berlin. Nice glass from the brewer. It is a pale straw-yellow with a steady white head, significant carbonation. A smell of grain and a touch of citrus. The taste is biscuit, a bit of lemon and a very small sweetness. Quite appreciated on a very warm, summer day. A Pilsner, what more can you say?

Tap at Lufthansa Conference Hotel in Seeheim. Last German state! This is a quite boring Pilsner, but what can you do.

0,33 l bottle. Clear golden in the glass, nearly two finger off white head. All you can expect from a Pilsener. Grainy grassy smell. Taste is grainy, some bitterness, increasing grassy and also increasing bitterness. Typical German standard Pilsener, nothing wrong.

Not nearly as rad as the name. Tastes slightly on the caustic side. Almost certainly in poor condition, though.
