State-of-the-art brewing and bottling technologies make for an annual output of 1.8 million hectolitres.

0.33 l can from Spar. Pours golden color and foamy white head that disappears quickly. Sweet malts, hay and hints of bitter grass in aroma. Bittersweet taste, but rather on the sweet side however the finish is bitter. Light bodied, lively carbonated, easily drinkable.

0.5 l can from a random Spar. Nothing much to be said here, an average macro pale lager.

Can. Golden pour, white head. Cheap lager base, some metallic notes, faint hoppy character, moderate bitterness. I should really stop going after cheap ticks.

Bottle. I had the Perlenbacher version from Lidl. Pretty much a standard German Pilsner. Clear gold in color with a 2.5 finger head.x taste was grains and grass. Like I said standard German Pilsner.

0.5 l can. Light brown, thin head. Somewhat sweetish nose and taste that would be alright for a märzen, but there're some unpleasant metallic notes to it that ruin it. Still, not too bad, but quite mediocre.
