These German pickles are crisp, crunchy, and delicious. Marinated in a lightly sweetened brine, they are kissed with a touch of sugar. Not overly sweet like some gherkins, these barrel pickles are packaged in a cute barrel-shaped glass jar. Superb as part of an hors d'oeuvres sampler, served alongside bratwurst, or as a cold addictive snack.

Comments about Barrel Pickles:

One of the best pickles I've had. Delicate but flavorful without bitterness or overpowering dill flavor. I find german pickles (and gherkins) far better than local products.

We absolutely love these crunchy pickles. I'm a big pickle fan and these are still my favorite. I also like the largemouth jars and save them for storing shop supplies.
