It is love at first sight with this frothy head. It is soft and white, with lots of fine pores, and does not disappear while you are drinking. Pale gold underneath. Attractive, even cloudiness, yet also radiant. The bouquet radiates floral-grassy cheer with memories of lemongrass and orange, a mild bread note and a discrete sponge note. The first taste is mild and soft, yet also tangy. The Winkler Hefe Pils feels good on the tongue. A cultivated bitterness quickly spreads around the mouth and seems to expand as required. Lemongrass is present again, followed by ripe, yellow grapefruit. Original wort: 11,6º.

Tasting at Phill's, bottle
(some details got lost) Hazy pale blond colour. It has some interesting grassy and spicy hop note, I prefer some more bitterness, but it's a solid example.

Poured from 650mL bottle (pkg 06.09.22). Hazy gold with small white head. Grassy floral hops, mild straw malt, hint of pepper. More toward the pilsner style than hefe. Decent, but not much complexity.

500ml @ Phill's. Appearance: cloudy dirty straw with a white head. Aroma: interesting flowery hops, a bit dirty, some European hops. Taste: along the same lines, some weird bitterness, malty, finishes with usual European hops bitterness. Overall: ok, a bit too bitter for my taste, though.

500mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of hazy, biscuity malt, and a touch of grassy hops. Flavour is crisp and nicely biting, with grassy hops, biscuity malt, and some straw. Crisp, fairly dry, and clean. It's decent.

Helle, trübe Farbe. Cremiger Schaum. Deutliche Zitrus- und leicht florale Noten. Gute Hopfung. Weiches Mundgefühl. Gut. Der Name „Hefe-Pils“ ist etwas verwirrend, Keller- oder Zwickl-Pils wäre treffender und gustiöser. Der Wortwitz Hefe-Pils / Hefepilz ist nur semigelungen. Da denkt man eher daran, dass man da dagegen eine Salbe aus der Apotheke holen muss und nicht an ein schmackhaftes Bier.

500ml bottle. Cloudy, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with average to huge, thick, frothy to creamy, slowly osteoporosing, minimally lacing, white head. Minimally husky, malty and slightly yeasty, fruity aroma, notes of mirabelle and apricot, a touch of brioche, protein. Taste is minimally husky, malty, some protein, minimally doughy yeasty, moderately bitter hoppy, yeasty fruity hints of mirabelle and apricot; lingering, bitter hoppy finish. Minimally creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, slightly dry palate, medium to fine, mildly prickly carbonation. Well crafted, well balanced, nice fruitiness - very good!

On tap at the brewery. Bit cloudy golden with medium sized lasting white head. Malty, super dry, easy drinkable, nice lasting bitter finish. Bit spicy in the end. Great. Probably one of the best style examples I have tried.

On tap @OG Pub (Rome). Dorata, velata, schiuma bianca media. Al naso note di pane, miele, erbaceo, pasta l'abbia. In bocca è dolce all'attacco, con finale amaro, crosta di pane e miele. Corpo leggero, carbonazione media. Rustica, molto buona.

50cl bottle. A slightly hazy blond beer with a mid-sized most good lasting white head. Aroma of mild yeasty fruits, soft grassy bitter hops, pale malt. Taste of dry mild grassy hops, pale malt, some yeast, easy to drink!
