DAB Original

Brewed by Dortmunder Actien Brauerei (Oetker Group)
Style: Dortmunder/Helles

Serve in Lager glass

Decent head and okay darker yellow body with light carbonation. Soft hop-cardboard lager aroma of no real interest. Flavour is light hops with a planty aftertaste. Watery palate. This is just generally a crappy beer.

Dab Dortmunder Actien Brauerei Original 500 ml can pours golden with frothy white head. Quite carbonated, head dies down to patchy. Yeasty aroma. Sweet malty drinkable drop.

Aroma is not real evident and the initial taste seemed a little bitter. I must admit the more I drank, the more I enjoyed it. Detected no real after taste. Nothing to brag about but acceptable.

Short white head, with a medium sweet taste and some oily texture.It’s a good lager.

Poured into my DAB glass. Aroma is pleasant for a lager. Flavor is grainy, corn and rice. Overall a OK lager.

Appearance: deep buttery gold, short bright white head, minimal lacing. Aroma: sweet grains, a bit of grass and hay. Taste: as the aroma indicates. Finish: clean, sweet, and short. Notes: Very simple, a little too sweet, and lacking any kind of pizzaz at all. I love a good lager, but this was terribly, terribly average at best.

Slightly skunky smell - notes of wheat and flowers on the palate, drank from a tulip glass

Tasted from famous green bottle into a tulip glass. Part of a Beers of the World mix-pack. Poured a light straw color with large foamy white head, moderately lasting with some lace. Faint aromas typical of better light lagers: straw, fresh-cut grass, mild malt, slightly musky hops. Flavors equally mellow and neutral, with light body and crisp, dry finish. No aftertaste. Fine, I guess. Not sure why this is such a global gold standard, though.
