Draught at their brewpub in Muhlhausen. Sold as a bockbier. Big fluffy beige head. Aromaticaromawith chrystal maltiness and dried red cherries. Complex chrystal malt taste with several sorts of chrystal malts. Low bitternessthat don’t match up the sweet malts.

Bottle: Deep golden, smaller, slowly collapsing and lacing white head, shy sweet-malty nose with a tinge of bisquits; light sweetish-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; almost a watery finish with traces of malt and hops. B&B: bland and boring........

(bottle) Clear, amber colour with a big and slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet malty, bready nose with a whiff of caramel and a light hoppy background. Sweet flavour, cara-malty, bready taste, light to medium bodied, soft on carbon; medium-dry, moderately sweet, malt-accented with a faint whiff of liquorice and a shy hoppy blend. Nice, strong malty Festbier.
