3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
Got this at a getranke markt in Bitburg. ABV is 5.7, not 5.2. Light gold body. Small white head. Moderate lacing. Aroma of hay and citrus with notes of barnyard. Taste light malt on the front with a tangy citrus hop bite on the back. Overall good balance. Fresh tasting and not too watery on the palate.
