A very good lager. My rating is low because lager isn’t one of my favorite styles of beer. But if I had to choose a lager, this would be in my top 10. Nothing special, but nothing offensive either.

Ein recht langweiliges Lager. Süffig ist es, das Aroma bleibt aber größtenteils auf der Strecke, erst im Nachgeschmack gefällt das Bier durch feinherbe, lang anhaltende und gut dosierte Herbe. Test vom 10.11.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,6,10,12,12,9 - 9,30

Bottle purchased in Igls, Austria. Pale yellow with a touch of green. Nose: Cat pee, light hop, earthy notes, ripe yeast. Taste: woody, thin hops, slight vanilla, light bitter. Quite light and even a suprise the abv is 4.8. Easy to drink but by no means a tongue pleaser.
