German brewer Berliner-Kindl-Schultheiss-Brauerei has revealed plans to introduce its flagship Berliner Pilsner to the UK.
The 5% ABV beer will launch across the country on draught and in 355ml glass bottles, “bringing with it the vibe and atmosphere of one of the world’s greatest party cities,” the brewer said. It is emblazoned with the symbol of the Berlin bear, which appears on the city’s flag and stands as a mascot for tolerance and openness.
“Berliner Pilsner has been a stalwart of Berlin culture since its introduction to the German Democratic Republic in 1963 and is brewed according to the German purity law and finished with yeast from its own pure breed,” Berliner-Kindl-Schultheiss added.
The brewery’s Jörg Peter said: “It’s great to be launching a beer that’s so well known in Berlin, and such a huge part of Berlin culture, to the UK beer scene. Berliner Pilsner encompasses the fantastic attitude and philosophy of Germany’s complex capital… and we can’t wait to share our city with the UK.”
