Rothaus – Tannenzäpfle Pilsner

Description

Brewed in Grafenhausen in the southern Black Forest, Rothaus Pils Tannenzäpfle has been around for over 60 years.

A clean (and gluten free) pilsner that’s everything you’d expect from German style of beer.

The label depicts the spruce-fir pinecone branches of the forest and these pinecones are what this beer is named after, Tannenzäpfle.

The Tannenzäpfle was the first Rothaus beer to emerge with a label depicting “Biergit”, the Black Forest girl holding two glasses of beer. Today, “Biergit” is the defining symbol for all beers made by the Rothaus Brewery.
