Bought in Gronau. I have good memories attached to this beer. I’ve visited the now closed Ritter Brauerei for trade meetings in the late 80’s and early 90’s. The barman tapped Ritter pils for a Deutschmark and you got the glass for free. But after 1 or 2 I had enough (didn’t like the beer too much) and asked Czech visitors who’d brought their local beers to trade a bottle for an in those days very welcome Deutschmark. My only chance to taste Czech beers in those days. Have the Ritter beers become better in taste? Not really. A somewhat flowery aroma. A bit harsh bitter, metallic flavor. Not a fresh hoppy bitterness, but oilier with hints of butter. Long metallic bitter aftertaste. Again: disappointing.

Sampled from 0.5 l bottle from ’Rudat’, best before May 2018. Clear, golden yellow with a thin, frothy, almost stable, white head. Very faint, sweetish, slightly grassy aroma of grains and traces of straw. Moderately sweet, slightly bitter, a little grassy taste of grains and a touch of straw, followed by a short, moderately bitter, slightly grassy and rather dry finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Very bland, not any better than the stuff from the discounters.

50cl bottle. Pours clear pale golden colour with a huge good lasting white head. Aroma of grassy and grainy malt. Taste of grainy malt, mild grassy hops, watery palate, boring!

Clear pale yellow colour. Very small white head. The flavour is OK malty, but there is also an underlying grainy note. Almost clean finish.
