BRANDS AVAILABLE
Bitburger- This elegant Pilsner beer has a bright, fresh golden color and rich frothy head. Its refined herbal notes are delicately poised, followed by a nutty and honeyed aftertaste. The overall impression of this gently sparkling beer is one of deep harmony, with the unmistakable bitterness of the hops balanced and contained by an agreeable, mellow sweetness in the body. abv: 4.8%
Bitburger Radler- A light, aromatic shandy with a typically dry, Pilsener taste. It has an exceptional citrus taste and hop flavors which leaves a pleasant after-taste that strikes a dry, refreshing balance with the fruitiness. abv: 1.9%
Bitburger Drive- Pours a nice tanned yellow, it has a taste I would not normally associ-ate with near beer – hops and grain. Drive packs a small hoppy punch upfront and in it’s finish. Slightly bitter and lightly carbonated, the over-all drink itself is refreshing and just as good as the regular Pilsner. abv: 0.0%
Köstritzer Schwarzbier- A mahogany color and a lasting, cream-colored, finely poured head are the defining features of Köstritzer black lager beer. Its expressive fragrance evokes a range of intense spicy aromas, including sage, roasted chestnuts, dark honey, bitter chocolate and fresh, farm-baked bread. Dry on the palate, and marked by bitter-sweet herbal and toasting aromas. The intense aromas are balanced by the gently sparkling carbonation with freshness and elegance. With delicate bitter tones and malty sweetness, it finishes slowly on the palate. abv: 4.8%
Köstritzer Pale Ale- A light, bitter pale ale with notes of refreshing citrus and tropical fruits balanced out by a deep hop flavor. abv: 7%

LIMITED RELEASE FESTBIER
Bitburger Festbier has a clear, amber hue that sparks memories of the first days of autumn. Poured with an inviting, foamy white head – the intriguing spicy aroma is a mix of slightly roasted bread, hints of caramel and a fruit cake. A crisp and full-bodied mouthfeel complements a variety of malty flavors like roasted nuts and bread, with a well-balanced sweetness of raisins and dried fruit. Finishing with a light, yet lingering bitterness that doesn’t overwhelm; it plays well with the perceptible higher alcohol.
A true example of the style that will pair perfectly with roasted turkey, strong cheese or grilles sausage. abv: 6.2%
