previously tested at German BTO 08/2006: Schöne Flasche mit Etikett, auf dem der berühmte Goldene Reiter Dresdens abgebildet ist (es heißt aber Goldner Reiter, ohne e). Schmeckt wie ein tschechisches Lager, ziemlich malzbetont, sehr angenehm. Schaum nicht zuviel, aber ok, feinporig. Gut!

Dusty grainy nose, yellow color, foamy head. Sweet round malt body and almost no hop character. Also has a little rotten egg flavor to it at times. Medium body with a creamy (soapy?) mouth feel. Not so good.

Sweet, canned corn nose. Medium fast diminishing head. Lively carbonation, golden color. Corn and grain come through in taste too. Watery. At least 50 Euro Cent for this beer are for the flood victims - it taste a little bit like Elba water.
