Bottle. Amber color. Soft bready caramelly aroma. Malty sweetish bready flavor with toffee. Not abundant with character, but quite drinkable.

Bottle @ Bierzwerg.de. Pours cloudy golden with a creamy head. Grassy and hayish. Very bready. Lacks bitterness. Smooth.

Bottle: Hazy, light amber coloured, small foamy layer, mild fruity-toasty nose with a faint bitterness underneath, light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied as well, pretty soft; mild and lingering sweetish-bitter finish. Drinkable brew....

Not easy to find out where this beer is brewed if you don´t have internet and ask people in Bamberg, because they don´t know that it is from Kaiserdom. The head is not that robust, the colour is light-brown. The taste is a bit yeasty and dry.

Olyan színe van, mint egy rostos sárgabaracklének. Habja tört fehér, igen sűrű és vastag, kemény és igen kitartó. Illata zöld növényes, vizes szalmás, komlós és kissé szúrós és dohos. Karamellásan kezd az íz ami átúszik egy kis karton papiros mellékízbe, amit követ egy kis zöld körte, méz, maláta és élesztő. Könnyű teste van és közepesen szénsavas. Utóíze fanyar és keserédes, kissé pincés és a legvége száraz. Könnyen fogyasztható pincesör, de semmi több...

50cl bottle. Poured light amber with a strong white head. Earthy, grainy aroma. Flavor is minerals, grain and bread. slightly bitter finish. Ok zwickel.

Bottled (thanks Timo A!). Slightly hazy golden colour, small off-white head. Aroma is bready, and mild fruity and berryish notes. Flavour is rather much the same. A bit dull and grainy.

(bottle) pours a murky orange-amber colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of sour dough, grainy pale malts, medicinal hops, caramel and light peaches. flavour is mostly the same, quite grainy, but in a pleasant autumnal sort of way. medium-bodied with average carbonation.
