Waldhaus - Extra Herb

Waldhaus - Extra Herb: The Pilsner for Hop Purists

If you are looking for a true character among German beers, there is no way around the Waldhaus Extra Herb. Interpreted as a classic Pilsner - German, it proudly shows its edge and sets a clear signal for everyone who appreciates a striking bitterness and a lean texture. It is the consistent answer to mellowed-down beers and brings a fresh breeze to your glass.

In the glass, this beer presents itself in a brilliant golden hue, crowned by a fine-pored head. Right from the first sniff, the typical varietal aromas rise to your nose: a fine, flowery hop spice pairs with a subtle grassy note that immediately makes you want to take your first sip. The malt sweetness remains discreetly in the background to give the hop aromas the necessary space to unfold.

The taste delivers what the name promises. A lean body and a lively effervescence form the foundation for an intense but always noble bitterness. The brewery relies on 100% natural hop cones from Tettnang, Spalt, and Hallertau, specifically a combination of the aroma hop varieties Spalter Select, Mittelfrüh, and Tettnanger, which give the beer its characteristic depth of field. It is an honest craft product from the Black Forest that convinces without any bells and whistles.

This beer is a real statement for lovers of the North German style, perfected here in the South. The cold fermentation and long storage period result in a crystal-clear flavor profile that impresses with its straightforwardness from start to finish. A Pilsner that is not only thirst-quenching but also wonderfully stimulating for the senses due to its bitterness.

In terms of food pairing, the Waldhaus Extra Herb is a versatile companion. The pronounced bitterness harmonizes particularly well with spicy dishes or richer foods that can handle a strong counterpoint. Try it with a classic North German Matjes roll with onions or a hearty, aged mountain cheese – the carbonation and hops literally cut through the richness of the food.
