Beer Tasting - Bewog Pilsner & Bergkönig Lager | Ecency

Hello, beer lovers! 🍻

How are you? Thirsty? I haven't yet, but I will soon since I'm in action, mowing the grass in the orchard.
Perfect for 411th #beersaturday :)

alt

As you can see, my lawnmower has two cans, one is Austrian and one Slovenian, which I'll taste after mowing.

alt

It's quite a big orchard - only half of it - and I'm counting on a good hour and a half to mow it. I have put the cans into the cooler. Having them on the mower is not good because it shakes them quite a lot. The beer would foam up too much.

Start of mowing

alt

What do you say, but did I do well? I finished what I had planned for today.

alt

A few raindrops have fallen today, and heavy rain is forecast for tomorrow.
I will resume mowing on Monday or later, the other half of the orchard.

alt

Now, finally, to the beer!

alt

First, the one with less alcohol.

🍻 😎 🍻

Bewog Pilsner

alt

Brewed by Brauhaus Bevog, Bad Radkersburg, Steiermark, Austria.
Can, 0.33 l, alcohol 4.2% ABV, IBU N/A. Pilsner-style beer.

What do the Master Brewers say?

This marvelous beer is another showcase of true mastery and craftsmanship. Exquisitely refreshing bitterness, and an immaculately clean body that drinks like a dream. It's hopped with the classical traditional hops, trusted by brewmasters for decades. A premium pilsner for people who know how to appreciate true beer in its purest essence.

Oh, what a song of praise :)

alt

The beer is yellow, with an average head that disappears quickly. It has no smell. The first sip goes down the throat smoothly. I taste a pleasant hop bitterness in my mouth, followed immediately by a malty sweetness. There are some herbs in the background.
A hint of bitterness lingers in the aftertaste for a while.

alt

It is a drinkable and refreshing beer, a balanced Pilsner, very suitable for drinking after activities such as mowing. But it's not an overachiever.
I bought it in the Hofer store, priced at €1.79.

🍻 😎 🍻

Bergkönig Lager

alt

Brewed by Privatbrauerei Fritz Egger, Unterradlberg, Austria, for the Hofer and Aldi retail chains
Can, 0.5 l, alcohol 4.9% ABV, IBU 20. Lager beer.

In the background of the photo are tomato and pepper seedlings. They are still in pots; it's too cold to plant them.

What do the Master Brewers say?

A typical Austrian lager beer, mildly hopped, highly fermented with a full-bodied taste.

🍺

alt

The beer is clear yellow. There is a lot of head, but it disappears quickly. It has no smell. It goes down the throat smoothly. On the palate, I first taste the sweetness of the malt, maybe a hint of corn, and very little bitterness. It is watery.
In the aftertaste, it all disappears quickly.

alt

A typical industrial lager from a large brewery, nothing special. Drinkable, suitable for drinking during and after activities like I had today. But the price is reasonable, €0.69.

And what am I listening to when writing this? Nothing from Fridays #newtunes.
In the evening I'm going to record a band from Spain named Capsula. I don't know nothing about band, so I'm listening to their KEXP performance.
