2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Swing-top bottle: Hazy, orangey colour, big fluffy off-white head, lacing; fruity (bananas) yeasty nose, some hints of floral happiness; starts sweetish, mild and fruity; light bodied, light but tart bitter flavour; lively carbonation; very light bitter aftertaste; lacks a fuller body. Pretty good beginning, bland finish.......
1.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Etwas grasiger Geruch, sehr trocken, etwas hopfig. Milder Antrunk, süffig, etwas würzig. Durchgängig leicht getreiedig mit deutlichem Hopfeneinfluss. Ansonsten ein sehr unscheinbares Bier, dass wohl eher der leichten Erfrischung als dem bierigen Genuss dienen soll.
Test vom 7.8.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 5,5,8,5,7,5 - 5,55
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle, 4.9%. Citric aroma. Very cloudy yellow colour, lots of floaties. OK semi-stable white head. Plasticky flavour. Citric and yeasty, too. Seems OK, but the plastic is bad.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Dark yellow colored, strongly hazy appearance. Medium sized yellow head. Strong biting sour-lemony aroma, some weird herbal-anis tone here also. Medium bodied. Flavor is weird with hints of Belgian spice-herbal anis combination, lemon here too. Weird brew, still good one. Some hops in aftertaste.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Does anyone really know what a Zwickel-keller-landbier is anyway? Tasted like a pale lager to me, kind of like Stella. My recent selection of German beers has really left me in the dumps. I mean, isn’t all German beer supposed to be awesome and ready to pound for 30 days straight (at least in October)? This was bland, pale, and somewhat tastless. Who wants that? It did not down easy so I am sure that no one would be offended, blah, blah, blah. Just don’t expect anyone, except a true German from Altotting, to be impressed. Ho-hum, next.
2.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
(swing top bottle) Hazy yellow colour with a small, slightly yellow frothy white head. Fruity nose of lemon and grapefruit with hints of wheat bread. Soft sweet flavour, fruity, bread malty and yeasty taste with a short hopbitter finish.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 9/20
Pale golden colour. Quickly diminishing head. Weak aroma. Pretty bland taste, a hoppy finish, though. Body is light and the beer is too stale.
