Bottle 33 cl at zum Braunen Mutz, Basel. Poured light brown in colour with light tan head. Light malty with dark fruits in aroma. Caramel in flavour with some dark dried fruity sweetness. Medium carbonated. Aftertaste pleasant smooth and sweet brown sugary. A bit dry finish. Leaves a nice lacing the glass.

Enjoyed with some fondue on the waterfront of Luzern. pours copper with tastes of plums and pears, roasted malt sweetness, and hints of soy sauce.

Draught at "Bierhalle Wolf" - Zurich.
Good head of medium resistance. Nice dark/brown golor with a long and persistant bright aspect. Little roast notes, malty, cereals, woody. Bitterish and alcoholic content, good prickly body with a long persistant ashed smell.

Bottled 30cl. Sampled at Brasserie Federal in Zürich. It pours a deep ruby beer with a foamy light beige head. Average head retention. Very interesting nose with hints of candy floss, caramel, pear and metal. Some soy sauce sneaking in. Sweet taste with caramel dominating. Medium bodied. Some lacework. Alcohol, pear and candy floss showing up. Metallic. Sweet finish. Another mediocre beer from Eichhof.

Bottled (thanks Bov!). Dark copper colour with small beige head. Aroma is very much cotton (!!!), caramel malts and hios, Flavour is caramel malts and overall very sweet. Not very much flavourwise except that, so a watery, but refreshing thing is what to expect....

This is the only half-decent Eichhof product and the only thing keeping me from boycotting the brewery. It pours a decent brown colour with faint head. It has a bit of roasty malt in the taste and some sweetness.

Roasty & smooth. Farily lite body with very smooth finish. Brown colour with malth aroma.

Brown color, persistent thin collar. Light malt aroma. Pretty sweet, light malt. Poor hop character, and simple palate.

This is the rating for Hubertus pilsener. Clean, flavorful with a nice hoppy finish.
