Description
In the years 1891 and 1892, the Gütermann family built a brewery in Saalfeld that was modern from the perspective of the time. During the last days of the war the brewery was completely destroyed. But the brewery was quickly rebuild; from 1948 to 1991 the brewery was state-owned. At the time of the reunification of Germany in 1989, the brewery was in a technically completely outdated condition. In 1991 the brewery became a private company. After large investments the Bürgerliche Brauhaus Saalfeld became a modern brewery. A share of 23% is owned by Kulmbacher Brauerei AG.

Ich kann kaum glauben, dass ich das "Saalfelder Pilsner" noch nicht bewertet habe ... jetzt also endlich: vom Faß im Hotel Am Schwarm in Saalfeld, 16.7.2025. - Goldgelb, klar. - In der Nase wie im Antrunk feine zitronige Hopfenherbe über schlankem doch saftigem hellen Malz mit ganz leiser Restsüße. Milder rezent, kremig schlank. Im Abgang leicht trocken und nicht zu kräftig aber solide zitronenschalig hopfenherb. - Solides, rundes und ausgereiftes Pilsener, kein Industriebier, mit Sorgfalt gebraut. Man schmeckt schon die Nähe zum fränkischen Bierparadies ...

Bottle from a local supermarket. Looks good. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Fresh hoppy aroma. Starts mild, malty, more and more fresh hoppy, light fruity notes, not too intense. Mild sweetish background. Shy bitterness. Finish well balanced. Quite drinkable. Nice!

Clear pale golden with a foamy head. Very grassy and grainy, strawy, slightly metallic, hoppy, citrusy. Hoppy metallic bitterness, grainy sweetness. Light bodied, oily watery texture, lively carbonated, dry hoppy grainy grassy finish. A very decent Pilsner!

Bottle, gift. Aroma is grainy malt with grassy noble hop. Some straw and a herbal hoppy touch. Flavour is moderate bitter, fairly low on sweetness, finishes dry. Medium body. A very fine Pilsener.

I could name about 500 better pilsners off the top of my head, but sure, go ahead and call this "premium."

Big thank you to kappldav123 for this 0,5 l swing top bottle. BB 15.02.25. Clear dark copper in the glass, small one finger white head. Looks good. Malt and some toasted nuts on the nose. Taste is smooth grainy with some sweetness and caramel in the second row. Grain and nuts in the aftertaste, soft bitterness. Mid carbonated. Not bad.
