Brewed by Feldschlösschen (Carlsberg)
Style: Seasonal beer
Rheinfelden, Switzerland

Feldschlösschen is the best known beer brand in Switzerland. Their beers have been brewed at the Feldschlösschen brewery in Rheinfelden, the biggest brewery in Switzerland, since its foundation in 1876 and has been the leading Swiss beer brand for more than 100 years. Today its by far the leading brand in the country with 45 per cent of the beer market, with more than 40 Swiss beer brands, mineral waters, soft drinks and wine produced and shipped all over the country and beyond.

The brewery logo is in the shape of a castle and Feldschlösschen means ‘small castle in the fields’ in German.

Have tried Feldschlösschen beers before, most notably their main brew, their Pale Lager which I actually liked, much to the chagrin of beer geeks everywhere. Yes it is a generic lager but on a hot day a cold one is great. As I said at the time, it is a “bloody good beer!” Also tried their strong Pale Lager, Feldschlösschen Stark , at 7% ABV. Also found it quite nice and did the business.

Review: Green bottle at 33cl of Feldschlösschen Frühlingsbier: 4.8% vol

A seasonal spring beer.

On the nose I get a light aroma, very faint, a bit malty and metallic, not great.

For the appearance it is a yellowish looking beer, with no head to speak of, looks pretty shite to be honest. Yellow goes a bit cloudy after a while too. Doesn’t look great.

Found the taste to be slightly strange, a bit pointless to be honest. Bit cardboardy and overloaded with sweet malts.

Fruits at the back trying to get out, detectable.

Shit, bland taste, nothing nice, very boring and unexciting.
Taste!!! Bland, cardboard, slight fruit at end. Pointless!!! Malty, very malty
But not beery. Disappointing, flat in the taste, faint hops barely noticeable, the beer should be given away for free (it’s a bit pricey)
Gave me a head the next morning, shitty beer!
