Quack-Duck (1698), Bodensee, Germany Sep 8, 2007 bottle. Strawy yellow, medium-size head. Full-bodied and very malty, slightly spicy with a pleasant touch of hops. Well-balanced.
Allen (559), Wölflinswil, Switzerland Jul 21, 2008 Bottled 50cl. It pours a pale golden beer with a small white head. Wonderful nose with hints of wild strawberries and gooseberries. Malty taste with notes of gooseberries and wild strawberries which are accompanied by a decent amount of marmite. Medium bodied. Poor lacing. Pleasantly hoppy. There is a good bite to this beer. Excellent dry finish with lemon and gooseberries showing up. A great and deeply pleasant beer in my mind. oldrtybastrd (1512), Morlautern, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany May 11, 2008 Pours a clear golden yellow color. Aromas of grass, cheerios, and a touch of flowers. Flavor is kinda sweet to start, citrusy finish with some hop notes. kappldav123 (948), Markkleeberg, Germany Jan 3, 2008 The bottle looks simple, but good. The beer in the glass also, but there’s not much foam. The beer tastes hard and dry, not a little bit spicy. I didn’t like it. Papsoe (9980), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 19, 2005 (Bottle 50 cl) Pilsener golden with a small head. Lovely hop aromatic nose, but also quite bitter which is a bit unusual for a "Spezial" which are usually softer and more rounded. 110103
