At Taps Bebek Bottle. Looks ok and tastes not too bad. By far the best beer I tried at taps on the day. Nothing special though.

Koelschtrinker (8479) - Köln (Cologne), GERMANY - JUN 6, 2011
Leicht malzig-herber Antrunk. Im Mittelteil etwas malzig, sehr mild, wenig süß. Anzeichen einer bitteren note lassen sich etwas herberen Abgang finden, dafür ist die Malzigkeit nun verschwunden. Sehr leicht würzig ist das Bier hierzudem, so lässt sich der Abgang als kräftigster Part betiteln. Test vom 11.8.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,7,7,7,13,7 - 7,50
