Stiegl Bier

Brewed by: Stieglbrauerei zu Salzburg
Brewed at: Salzburg, Austria
Type: lager
4.9% A/V

First Impression
Top marks for package design. Bold simplicity. I like a beautiful can as much as the next bloke... But Austrian beer is not terribly within my wheelhouse.

First Sip
Hold the phone. This is delicious. Crisp golden beer. Confident head. Light tasting with enough malts and smooth hops to please true beer enthusiasts.

Halfway
Fantastic easy drinker of an eastern euro lager. Tasty and inoffensive.

Bottoms up
This is a great beer with which to decorate the inside of the fridge. The bold label design makes it easy to spot in a crowded cooler and the palate is genuinely crowd pleasing. Well done.

86/100
