<b>Appearance: </b>Pours pale yellow, slightly hazy, moderatel carbonated body, head is very nice almost frothy,, initially big, very slowly decreasing to medium, ddep, regular in structure, dense and compact. Quite intensive lacing.
<b>Aroma: </b>Quite nice and very typical for a German Radler. Gentle sweetness and lemony - lime accents exposed and upfront. Some sweet sugar - powder accents, citric accid and bakery accents. Generally very nice, not disturbing and natural.
<b>Flavour: </b>Front is kind of harsh and sweet but very quickly a fruity accent begins to play dominating role with its exposed refreshing lime and lemon tastes. Gentle notes of powder sugar and some baking aromas. Generallz not disturbing, made on a good base of a Pilsener, gentle malty - grainy background with lost hoppy accent. Finish duration is moderate.
<b>Palate: </b>Body is light, texture is sweet but rather wattery, carbonation on palate is quite high, finish feel is very clean and gently grainy, gently sweet.

Fruchtig-wässriger, schnell künstlicher Antrunk. Schmeckt ziemlich so wieder jedes andere Radler auch nur nach künstlicher Limonade und nicht nach Bier. Auch die Süßstoffe kann man erschmecken. Test vom 23.12.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 6,5,5,3,6,4 - 4,45
