Organic Pinkus Jubilate

Dec 21, 2009

I've passed on this a few times but pulled the trigger last week at Green's on Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA. Pour is a hearty looking, mid-brown body with some nice frothy head. Lace is great. Lovely looking. Nose and tastes give a touch of acidity followed by lots of light malts and yeasty goodness. Flavorful and happily moderate with the ABV, there is plenty of German malt and yeast character here. Culminates with some nice, rounded aftertastes and a light, biscuity malt touch in the finish which...

Organic Münster Alt

Jan 26, 2007

Not really at all sure what is going on here, like the other Pinkus beers that I have tried it's rather odd. This beer has a slightly clouded macro yellow color with plenty of carbonation. Nice head and some good lacing. The beer is an ester-filled, malty and sweet bomb. It finishes quite acidic and with a mild hoppy, dry presence. Very smooth, quite drinkable, but where it fits into the traditional "Altbier" scheme is difficult for me to tell. I often wonder if the Organic moniker has...

Organic Ur Pils

Jan 19, 2007

Unfiltered Pils! Extremely light yellow with some haze and a lot of fine carbonation. At the bottom of the glass it is so light it almost looks watered down - literally. Good head and some nice lacing. Bread like aroma, with a little yeast character. Tastes are wheat based and almost Hefe like. In fact if I was drinking this blind, the combination of the appearance, the head, the lace and taste would have me thinking it was a Hefe rather than a Pils. Perhaps a little less traditional Pils...

Organic Hefe-Weizen

Jan 13, 2007

$2.99 Hiram Bottle Shop, Hiram, GA, USA. 500 mL bottle. I was in the mood for a Hefe - not a very common occurence - but I was. January in Atlanta and the sun is out and the temperature is in the mid-60's so I thought it was a good time to crack one. Unfortunately this came up short in almost every department. Pour came with a decent head, but lacked the huge pillowing effect that I was looking for. Color was a little too butterscotch influenced (lacked the yellow color, had more orange). Nose...
