UPDATED: FEB 27, 2004 Disappearing white head, good carbonation; very pale beer with greenish shine. Dry nose, a bit grassy & floral, faint honey, candi sugar, even alcohol. Taste is not as dry as the nose predicts. Very herbal and flowery; faint hops, some sugar in the finish. Bit empty mouthfeel, but in contrast, the sugar gets more marked in the aftertaste, gradually building up, certainly with warming. I'm getting the idea the beer isn't fermented out, still green to some extent. Talk about mixed feelings. The general herbal character of the beer is very pleasing, but the accumulation of sweetness makes me fear for the lagering it got...

Clear blond beer with a small head. Slight sweet, spicy and pleasent aroma. Light bitter somewhat chalky taste. Neutral to light bitter finish. A nice beer.
