The guy is drinking beer for a living. Let that set in. He's cracked the code to life, future scholars will write endless dissertations on his genius.
The comparisons let your passion show through, that's the real key to the popularity of them.
And yet he can’t pronounce Warsteiner correctly
Crazy, too, cause I remember this channel when it had so few subscribers. Greg (Greg's Beer Reviews) and Simon here both have an infectious enthusiasm about beer. I quite enjoy European beers, even while enjoying my local IPAs and beers (Mexican style lagers have taken over, lately, so that's what local brewers are doing). Someday, I'd like to do a real ale tour of the UK
@@a-b-jacksonyes he did 🤔
@@a-b-jackson C'mon, anyone who doesn't speak German would certainly pronounce it as he does.
German beer is the only way. I like the idea of having laws on making sure nobody cuts any corners, compared to the other garbage we drink.
Especially Budweiser
I have 2 bottles of each, going to have them whilst listening to the Arsenal v City game. Always like to watch your videos of the beers I am going to have before I have a bottle. It increases my appreciation. A huge thank you for the channel, man. You are THE number one beer channel out there! Salut!
Who was the winner? (Beers not Football teams!)
@@pgl0897 Krombacher!
Some of the German pilsners we get in our area:
Warsteiner
Bitburger
Konig
Radeberger
Wernesgruner (cheap but good!)
The really good big brewers:
Weihenstephaner
Ayinger
Paulaner
Happy Pils from Berlin is a nice modern take on German pilsners.
Loaded my fridge full of both of these beers for xmas , plus some Budvar and Urquel. And 9 different cheeses (a few of them are extraordinarily strong and stinky). Going to enjoy the next few days!!
Merry Christmas and thanks for all your great content and entertainment this year.
It's because of your videos Simon, that I have started drinking better beers, so, on Friday I bought 3 Warsteiner, 6 Pilsner Urquell and 6 Budweiser Budvar, I never usually pick these up, I usually go for the mass produced rubbish, but not anymore.
My thanks goes to you Simon 👍
Hacker Pschorr Keller bier is my go to German beer - if drink it more regularly if I didn’t have to go to a specialist supplier. I can get import Stella cheaply in my corner shop (for some reason - next to the uk stuff for ~the same price !?) so I’m generally happy with that…
Went down Morrisons earlier today and got 2 lots of the buy 4 for the price of 3 of Krombacher. I used to drink Warsteiner but much prefer Krombacher now, I also got a bottle of Hofbrau Original which is pretty nice.
When I used to visit my auntie in Celle, we also enjoyed some Warsteiner. Most of the more local brews are amazingly good.
Another good video, keep up the good work
Fantastic stuff. Keep it up.
Enjoyed one of those staropramen unfiltered you reviewed at the weekend 👍
And a Duvel strong blonde, 8.5%. Blew my socks off🤪
Try the Duvel triple hop. Thank me later 😂
A few years ago Warsteiner moved their brewery closer to the mountains and water source. Krombacher is 4th Generation family owned, always has been. Heineken own 45% of Paulaner 👍 Great review 🍺
Very interesting, I must try Krombacher. I just did a 330ml Warsteiner (7 points) V 330ml Hoffmeister (9 points) lager face off. Warsteiner is much dryer and the Hoffmeister is more malty and enjoyable. Cheers
It used to have Premium Verum on it previously I think.
How about these two versus Czech Budvar and Urquel?
I thought the same thing last few times i had warsteiner it wasn't as clean and crisp and definitely got a musty flavour from it. Thought it was just me being fussy so I'm actually glad to know its not just me.
Like both these. Just got some warsteiner.
Great review...I just tried them both together and I always thought that I preferred Krombacher as it was the first beer that I ever was drunk on when 14 on a German exchange in Siegen, less than a mile from the Krombacher factory. We were 14 and buying Stiefels. Unsurprisingly we lost our England VS Germany football match 3-0. And today I actually preferred the Warsteiner. But I always thought that I preferred the Krombacher. This bottle tastes a bit weak and metallic. The Warsteiner seemed to have a lot more of a bitter hop punch. I think each bottle can be slightly variable...like often beer at the beginning of a barrel in a pub is better than the end. Great review that you can change from what you thought before the review started ; ) Radeberger is the best though.
I recently bought a six pack Warsteiner lagers and I love this pilsener! It is a bit more hoppy than the Dutch pilseners I usually drink in the summer, but at the same time a bit sweeter as well. To me this lager is almost like a blond beer and that for a lager price. I am not complaining. That said, when served cold I like any lager/pilsener. It is at room temperature they really show their strengths and weaknesses. But I only drink beers at room temperature in the fall and winter (with room temperature I mean between 17 and 20 degrees celsius) and that excludes pilsener/lagers
I agree with everything you said. I used to love warsteiner. But I feel something has changed. I now prefer krombacher. I thought I was going mad. But good to see somebody with the Same opinion. Cheers.
Warsteiner is widely available all over eastern USA at $2.50 a pint I’m loving it
Ive had Kronbacher and it is nice , sort of reminded me of beer like Warstiener . Ive had it in the past but not regularly.
Its good but there is a sort of perceived aftertaste to it that I could never quite place . Still would drink it though
Another Ive liked is Lowenbrau
Couple of Krombacher it is then for the England match this Saturday. Last Sunday's match I was drinking the Czech Staropramen you recommended from Lidl's, delicious! Just discovered this excellent channel, thought I'd gone off beer in recent years, turns out I was just drinking the wrong stuff!
Yes - past year or so gone off the taste of warsteiner didn’t know why. Always pick kromabacher in Morrisons now or keo isn’t a bad drink. Found augustiner helles lagerbier this year. What a drink that is 🤤
I live in Cyprus and can't drink Keo 😂 To me it just tastes like chemicals. I much prefer Leon which is an all malt brew, I wouldn't rate it against Krombacher or Warsteiner tho. Augustiner Helles is awesome, one on my favourite beers.
I've noticed Warsteiner everywhere, nice German beer brewed in Germany! Easy choice over the label engineered UK brewed stuff.
I tried both a week ago, and warsteiner was drier, but the krombacher, although less dry left an awful clove aftertaste for a long time. I have some warsteiner still as part of a tesco 3 for £5.50 deal. Then again I like tennents. I'll give krombacher 7 warsteiner 8.5
I would prefer smaller bottles or cans, 660ml can be too much especially if having a couple.
I went to dusseldorf in the late 80s. The beer there was superb. I had some gastweiler alt, it was lovely. Unfortunately it's been bought out by carlsberg. 😢
You are right, it's not the same. In the eighties and nineties I used to pass the old Gatzweiler brewery on the west bank of the Rhine just before the Rheinkniebrücke and it was decent enough in town, at least straight from a small wooden barrel. It's all gone now, I'm not sure but I think the stuff in traditional style barrels is brewed by Zum Schlüssel in the old town but the bottled stuff, is brewed in the Mönchengladbach by the mega brewery owned by the Oettinger brewery. The Carlsberg link sounds feasable, as that and Tuborg are brewed there too. Don't quote me on any of this though!
Just got a bottle out of spar called 'Bowland brewery' it says bavarian. Not bad, definitely got its own taste. U ever tried it mate? I'd love to hear ur take on it. Loving the channel pal really good stuff
Will also add, that I get the dry peppery taste from Warsteiner, I don't get the musty taste. There's a slight hop taste there at the end that is muted by malt but it doesn't taste any different to me. Cheers from the Western US. Would love a follow up on this, Simon!
Lowenbrau on the Perfect Draft is absolutely Stunning 👌
I like both Krombacher and Warsteiner but find Krombacher a bit more refreshing. Here in Cyprus both are widely available so they are my go to beers. One supermarket sells Hofbrau Original which I prefer over Krombacher or Warsteiner. Just recently a few supermarkets started selling Bitburg which I like too, on the downside Paulaner Munchen Hell has completely disappeared.
I much prefer Krombacher, did a 40 mile train trip, just to go to a pub that had it on draft! Put it up against Hofbrau original though - that really is the pinnacle of German brewing imho!
Recently, I had the 5litre keg of Warsteiner whilst on holiday in Aberystwyth and found it dry but very refreshing. Only lasted 1 day
That long!
When living/visiting there I used to like a quite generic like the above - Konig Pilsner, nice and sharp and if you got a well-poured one, quite delicious with tight head.
Had Konig on draft and was in love.
I’ve had a few pints of Kopi. A reliable beer.
Good evening just a quick msg to ask if you have reviewed Loch Lomond Brewery Hit it Chewy Scottish tablet Stout from Lidl it’s absolutely stunning Stout can you please do a review on it if you haven’t done so Thankyou.
You say you get 3 for 2 at your Morrisons-I only get 4 for 3! My choice on that shelf now is the Stella Unfiltered-25p less than the watery Stella!
My two "go to" German beers! Warsteiner is indeed a pilsner. I also buy Bitburger. These big brands are very quaffable and haven't fallen foul (yet!) of the UK brewed "fake foreign beer" syndrome! I don't prefer one over the other and always get both on the three for five offer at Tesco. Having a Bitburger tonight though. What you say about Warsteiner is concerning. I will check this out when I next have one out of my beer cupboard.
Peter, if it makes you feel any better, the US also has that "fake foreign beer" syndrome that goes on. I imagine it should be worse here, but I don't know. We've already lost many of our craft breweries to big companies that changed the product line, often shelving the good beers for marketable beers
Warsteiner is my favourite UK Supermarket lager, drank it for a long time (even told you to review it years ago 😂).
Carlsberg started importing it a while ago and the quality did dip for a bit but I can assure you it’s back to its best, it may be your palate after drinking the Krombacher which as you said it’s a bitter beer.
If anything Krombacher isn’t as good as it was for me.
As I said on another video, both are brewed in Germany but are not the same beer the Germans have. It’s strange.
Have you tried fruh kolsch from morrisons?
I recommend Mönchshof Keller Beer 🍺 from Kulmbach Germany 🇩🇪
It’s awesome 👏
I like them both but prefer kombacher especially ice cold in my stein with meat grilling on the Q
I’m a lager/ pilsner German beer snob. I order from Germany. Pay a fortune. BUT. I still cannot beat the taste of krombacher !! I’ve tried ALL the pils in Germany. Koclsch. Helles etcetcetc and krombacher is still my fav beer. I even have a German friend who can’t believe I drink it. He says ‘it’s ok but there is so many better pils ‘. But for me and my tastes. There isn’t.
Now. It gives me an awful awful hangover were my stomach is churning for 10 hours the next day so I only ever limit myself to 3 660s a week.
Anyone else rate krombacher as highly as me ??
Krombacher is average IMO
@@scarywitch1381 get it ICE cold
Absolutely, 100% agree, I've had all the German beer i can get my hands on but krombacher is still my favourite. Unfortunately in Scotland you don't have multibuy deals so I'm paying £2.50 for what was £2 last year with no multibuy but it's still absolutely worth it.
Prefer the Warsti personally. The Krombacher uses hop extract that tastes a bit chemically on my palate.
@@pgl0897 yeah I think that hop extract is what gives me an awful hangover. A truly unique hangover krombacher has. Beautiful but deadly
Out of curiosity, I went down and picked up x3 different 4 pack cans of Krombacher, Bitburger & Warsteiner here in Ireland. Each a €8 a 4 pack.
I started off with a can of Bitburger, excellent pilsner. Found it a bit too drinkable.
Warsteiner, checked the can, nothing to do with Carlsberg/Marstons on the can. It had "Product of Germany" written on it though.
The Krombacher, same "Product of Germany" on the can and tasted wonderful.
I can honestly say, Warsteiner was the best of the bunch. Bitburger & Krombacher would be the same in quality for me, but second to Warsteiner. The Warsteiner was just the most refreshing & regret not just buying x3 4-packs of that instead.
But, I did find a few weeks ago, I bought Warsteiner in a bottle and it did have that musty taste, like it was left out or brewed in the UK water. It was also 10 months old, the can I'm current enjoying, being only 3 months old.
I tend to buy all my beer these days in cans, they have a faster restock time and never come in contact with the sun in those boxes they're sold in.
I have a suggestion, in ASDA they sell a German beer called Feldschlosschen for £1.05 per 500ml bottle. The beer is second to none for the price and I think it would be a good review, especially with the cost of living etc.
Love the channel.
Cheers
When I lived in the UK I used to drink Feldschlossen from Asda but after a while I found it was no longer brewed in Germany, it was then brewed in France. I don't know if that's changed back now as it was quite a while ago. It was ok for the price tho 😂
Cheap AF and nice that stuff 👌
Last time I had Warsteiner probably about 6 months ago, didn't enjoy it as I usually do. Thought maybe just growing out of it, in one way plus side if it is a change to the beer I know the German stuff will be as good as ever. So tempted to pick up Frankenheim Alt from beers of europe Simon but last I checked they were short dated. Remember being at a gig in Dusseldorf and Warsteiner and Frankenheim Atl were both on sale so each time I would buy a beer a switch between the two. Whenever you can try some good Dusseldorf Alt. Not sure if Frankenheim is well rated though I likes it but the likes of Schumacher and Füchschen is superb.
Frankenheim was always a sweeter, maltier Altbier, although I can't remember drinking it since they moved the brewery to Neuss and closed the old brewery tap, and that was years ago, I believe they've had a tie with Warsteiner for years. Do you remember "Düssel alt" aswell, they must be gone for nearly 30 years now, but they used to have a tie with Königsbacher of Koblenz? And when I lived over there many of my local bars around Viersen mostly had Krombacher and Diebels Alt together.
Love Füchschen and Schumacher but we always end up back at the Uerige. When my German mates drive over here for beer holidays, they will always bring over a couple of 10 or 20 ltr barrels of Uerige or Schumacher to drink and a 5 ltr tin or two of Füchschen for me to keep.
I had warsteiner the other day, I thought it tasted slightly dank which I deffo didn’t taste like before. I thought it was a bad batch or something
haha I regularly buy both of these!
Just started watching the channel and finding it really useful. I just did this comparison myself. Bought 2 bottles this evening. The Krombacher is miles better, there's no competition. The Warsteiner was bitter (not in a pleasant way), metallic, and chemically. Not nice.
That's one of the most roguishly creased collars on a polo shirt I've seen all day 😉
Warsteiner and Krombacher are a two of the best supermarket bombers out there, I also regularly buy Bitburger from Adnams brewery £35 for 24 500ml tins, an absolute steal considering all three are a country mile ahead of the rest of the bland glucose syrup shite that claims to be premium lager.
I bought a bottle of warsteiner in a tesco 4 for 3 at the weekend but my old man came round on fathers day and drank it 😂
It is Varsteiner! You have chosen two of my go to beers when I lived in Germany in the 70s. Krombacher is the better beer, I think. But Varsteiner.
Can you try the most sold beer in germany?
It is called Oettinger. Eventhough it is considered industrial, it beats these two.
It is a solid brew, not spectacular but reliable.
20 half liter bottles cost 6,50€ today.
Is the Krombacher good again? They've changed the recepie a few years ago, dropped ABV and it didn't taste that good anymore.
Strange, I thought it had improved a bit since I lived over there in the eighties. It was always OK on draught but I would never buy it bottled back then.
Krombacher is off for me. I tried it last summer here and had to give it away. Pretty rare for me when it comes to cheap thirst quenchers when having a beer whilst knocking over chores around the garden. It tasted "processed" for lack of a better phrase. Must be the "hop extract" they brew it with.
Krombacher is my favourite Lager of all time. The first time i drank it was a stone the crows moment
Try Radeberger
@@ant777live I've tried hundreds of beers over there and I have seen it occasionally in "getränkemarkt" (off licences) over there but never tried it, or for that matter any beer brewed in the old DDR. Is it any good?
My local pub has Warsteiner on draught, and it's the only pub in the town that does, it's not a bad pint either, and strong as hell.
Where do you live... I'd like to visit and sample some...😊
There's a "Gastro pub" that sells it on draught a few miles from me. I dread to think what they charge for it as I know what they charge for local Ale.
@@johnp8131 Pre pandemic it was £2.50 a pint, now it's £3.90
@@tonymorgan9533 Manchester 😂
Nice one Music.....
Both nice in their own way. Krombacher gets my vote
Krombacher is my go-to German pils with Bitburg as usually my second choice. I do rate Warsteiner & have some in the fridge atm but I haven`t noticed a change in quality myself but give way to your superior palate if you think it`s quality has declined.
Racb doesn't state the temperature of the lager, whether it's chilled or room temperature.
Warsteiner was the beer of choice for us in RAFG back in the day, horrified they might have changed it!
I Tried Warsteiner wasn't mad keen if I am honest bit to earthy tasting for my liking. Almost like they used water from the local pond.
Last week I went to Morrisons and bought a bottle each of Warsteiner, Krombacher and Fustenberg. I wanted to compare them to the Lowenbrau I had recently ordered (see my post and replies below). They were all nice beers, as you'd expect but I thought the Warsteiner came out on top for me, by quite a distance. Oddly, it had an unusual but pleasant flavour. However, it didn't trump Lowenbrau, in my estimation.
Lowenbrau is brewed for Germans by Germans, its not really a big international beer (in supermarkets anyway) were as Warsteiner, and Krombacher are. I definitely feel like this makes a difference with how they make it taste. A German market will want there beer purer than a market brought up on carling and bud. I mean don't forget Budweiser was made by a German for Americans.
Available in Morrisons 3 for 6 quid 500ml krombacher. Also pilsner urquell brewed in plzen. Fruh kolsch currently not in the offer
Shrinkflation. Used to be 660ml bottles same price. Cnuts!
I prefer Krombacher but they're both very good. Warsteiner a bit more variable in my experience and it may be an age of the bottle thing as others suggest.
That's a tough one they are both awesome beers, bit like asking you to choose which one is your kids is your favorite child 😂😂😂
That's much easier to answer than choosing between German pilsners! 🤣
It was forces guys stationed in Germany who popularised Warsteiner in the UK wasn't it? While your average Brit was piling boxes of Carling into their trolleys the guys who'd returned home would be grabbing these. I preferred DAB.
"Wobbly" or even Dortmunder Union Export were always the "go to" crates in the NAAFI families shop in the eighties and nineties. Wasn't keen on DAB but we didn't see it as often near the Dutch border? Ironically, I found it cheaper to buy a crate in a German "Drink Market" (Tax paid) than I did getting it supposedly tax free in the Naffi or Sgt's Mess!
I prefer krombacher. Especially since the cost of living crisis, in my local Morrisons its still £1.77 while warsteiner shot up to £2.50!
Both are great german lagers, I also find Bitburger & Veltins to be good alternatives.
I agree!
I liked Veltins, for a while Tesco had those so swapped out Warsteiner for them instead.
“Var” not “War” 😎
Warsteiner Pils and Dönkel are the only beers one needs in life!
For me krombacher every time they sell 500 ml cans of krombacher in Lidl when I was in dusseldorf last year for under a euro so cheap. Wish the beer in Scotland was cheaper.
I would have to agree that Krombacher is better balanced and thus the better beer. I would check the production date of the Warsteiner in this video. It has a distinctive malt profile that really overpowers the hops after 6 months or so.
Krombacher, Warsteiner, Radeberger, and Wernesgruner are all great values if found fresh.
Agre with you now I hope you compare krombacker vs bitburger that should be closer
Bitburger is similar to warsteiner. Typical Euro lagers. Krombacher stands out, I think it's easily better.
I absolutely love Krombacher. It's a perfect go to, easy drinking beer. Warsteiner can be too... Heavy. It doesn't lend itself to an easy drinking lager at all.
I used to be the president of a local over 30s/Old Boys football team and the custom was that one player had to bring a case of beer with them for the end of Tuesday training.
If you dared to bring anything but Warsteiner, there would be lots of sulking and moaning.
Even though were up North, that seemed to be the de facto pilsener.
By far krombacher is the superior.. when I go to Germany my friend all drink this also könig or bitburger ✌🏼👌🏼
I came from Soest next to Wastein (it is the area from Soest), but I pervers Krombacher. It has more taste and I like the foram!
I don't know if you habe the original Warteiner that we drink? You have to taste the "Bosch Pliserner" from Bad Laasphe! This beer is originaler than from Krombacher!
I will send you some Bottles of Bosch Bier! I is made with origimal hoppy, not withe extration from hoppy!
There is something massively different to the warstiner on the initial taste. I have no idea what it is as I'm not an expert. But there is something overpowering on the 2 seconds in taste that's so off-putting to me. There's something overwhelming that overpowers all other tastes coming through. I had a bottle of krombacher earlier and then tried a war. I actually poured the second half of the pint out and went back to the krom
Warsteiner is the clear winner of these for me. Much better balanced. I think the Krombacher uses hop extract.
The best German beer I ever had was draft Lowenbrau. I haven't seen it in decades, 'tho a few years ago I saw it in small cans in Asda.
Löwenbräu is a Helles type beer from Bavaria. It is indeed very good.
You are right about not seeing the Munich brewed "Löwenbräu" very often these days? What I do see, at least in bottles is "Spaten" and that is now from the same brewing company since they merged in '97. However I believe the old Löwenbräu brewery is still going, mainly for domestic brewing only?
@@johnp8131 I just found out about a company in Yorkshire that sells Lowenbrau in 500ml bottles. They only deliver locally unfortunately, but I'll be passing that way in the next month or so. £55 for 20 bottles; i'll be stocking up.
@@billguyan1913 Go for it! "Beers of Europe" have it in now but it's more expensive from them.
@@johnp8131 I'm in Scotland but the place is handy just off the A1M. In fact my daughter will be coming up that way in a couple of weeks, I can get her to bring it.
Can you rate some Scottish ales?
i am from Warstein, the city with the brewery. its about the water and the recipe, water quality is lacking ... some here say its better now, then the past 10 years but for me its not in the range of Krombacher
Thank you, you've answered some questions. It used to be a "go to" beer back in the 80's and 90's when I lived near 'Gladbach. Not so good as I remembered it when we go back, as my German Father-in-law always had them or König Pilsener. Both have gone "Down hill" in recent years, as have many others?
I found Kronbacher quite metallic on the end.
Warsteiner, however, is full bodied, slightly sweet and clean tasting. Lovely.
Someone in the comment section suggested that the stuff we get in the UK in 660ml bottles of both krombacher and warstiener are slightly different than the stuff they drink in Germany in 500ml bottles. I'm planning on doing a side by side and ill let you know the results. The German Warstiener bottles doesn't list "hop extract" as an ingredient so that's an immediate difference.
If there's a difference then me as a German I can tell you I like the one sold in England. If there's a difference then the German one is more full body. Which can taste overpowering. I'm thinking it's the same though. It's a beer that some day you like it very much and other days you just enjoy it.
@@karlheinzer2402 I find "hop extract" to have kind of a metallic sharpness to it, so my educated guess is it will be that, but I have no idea, ill see when I open them.
Both krombachers list "hop extract" however.
i find this "hop extract" to always be a red flag with beers.
Warsteiner for me i love it
go ahead ...i bought Warsteiner Premium Beer on carrefour turkish market first time in my life i try now while ur watching
Simon remember to pronounce warsteiner as varsteiner
These are both fine but they are a tier below Veltins or Jever
Jever used to be much more bitter.
Jever was a bit of a culture shock for me when I first tried it. I didn't expect how bitter it is. But its superb once you get used to that.
My German friends and I would always drink Jever on draught in our local 30 odd years ago when I lived over there. It was just different to the run of the mill pilsners at the time and relatively uncommon around Düsseldorf. Although, other beers like Bitburger were more bitter back then before they became multinational brands? I do have a case of Veltins coming tomorrow from a major on line company, as it was on offer. It's supposed to be the original German imported beer too? We'll see?
Can you do one comparing all the supermarkets lager please ?
Well worst would be Bud Light then Budweiser and Coors lol those US lagers are like Lemonade
@@christineayres7199 I mean the actual supermarkets lagers like Morrisons larger / tescos ect
@@mrzigg6594 Oh their own brand stuff ? Never drank any of it
@@christineayres7199 could be interesting to see if any are good as are cheap and which is the best
Interesting but can be difficult, as some supemarkets change the brewers of their beers pretty regularly and just keep the same labelling etc.....and it seems to be a bit of a secret who currently brews it, therefore the tastes can change more often than not? One that hasn't changed for a while is Morrisons premium lager, brewed by Cains brewery in Liverpool. A bit sweetish for some but personally I find it quite pleasant.
proper beers
Agree Warsteiner has a weird after taste. Krombacher always the better for me.
Will you do a review of the 5l mini keg of Krombacher? Goes in the beer monster machine and no need for CO2 canister as it’s already pressurised. Interesting to compare v bottle.
Went down Morrisons again yesterday, all Krombacher bottles are 500ml now, no 650ml on sale. Same price 4 for £6.60. I'd rather pay the same money for the smaller bottles as long as they keep the same recipe though, and don't do a Rheinbacher balls up.
Krom fore but both amazing
In Germany we call both Warsteiner and Krombacher "TV beers" meaning they may hit the average consumers' taste but both are far away from any 8 or 9, sorry...instead of try Schlenkerla Rauchbier
made in Bamberg or Franziskaner Weissbier from Munich. And many other less-known smaller brands. Greets, Paul
This blokes funny ,,,,, ! Reminds me of a ale drinking Honkey Tonk Man 😂
I remember going into a Greek taverna with a gob as dry as a Witch's wotsits and getting an ice cold warsteiner in a frozen glass - my word
OK Simon, Have you tried Kaltenberg Pils? If you haven't, don't bother as it was a fine beer when it was 6% ABV, it's now a ghost of what it once was at only 4.8%. Is this what they call progress? By the way, Simon, it's pronounced Varsteiner, in my local they call it War Starter.
Simon... just a little tip...W in German is pronounced as a V so it's Varsteiner not Warsteiner and Krombacher is the better... both still brewed in Germany...
And "S" is pronounced as "sh" before a "T". For example Stadt is pronounced as Shtadt
@@PointNemo9 thanks for that...
@@PointNemo9Depends what part of Germany you’re in. Some people do the “scht” and some don’t.
