About this beer

Adolphus is a German Style Pilsner brewed by Busch Family Brewery and Distilling, LLC. Weighing in at 5.0% ABV, this inaugural brew presents a crisp and refreshing profile, characteristic of the style. The label boasts the phrase “You can only drink 30 or 40 glasses of beer a day, no matter how rich you are,” alongside an ornate, golden design featuring a rearing centaur, presumably Adolphus himself, and flourishes reminiscent of vintage heraldry. This pilsner is crafted with the intention of delivering a traditional German experience, focusing on clean fermentation and a balanced bitterness.

The can showcases the Independent Craft Brewer Association seal, signifying its production by a smaller, independent brewery. The label's color scheme employs a striking contrast of black and gold, further emphasizing the luxurious yet playfully ironic tone. Ultimately, Adolphus aims to be a classic German Pilsner, true to form and brewed with careful attention to detail, despite the somewhat unusual marketing copy.
