Bottle. Hazy amber, off-white amber low head. Light honeyish nose. Lightbodied, light honey, light grain, light gras...this got to be the lightest everything celebration beer I ever had - feels like they are penny-pinching here.

Idiosynkrasie (527) - Bielefeld, GERMANY - MAR 24, 2012

Grima (1573) - Saarburg, Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - OCT 6, 2011
The beer in the glass is strong golden-yellow with pearly soapy head. Malty, slightly sweet, bready aroma. Starts malty-caramelly, bready, spicy-sweet. The middle part is hoppy-metallic, malty and caramelly. Goes into a malty-bready, and musty-hoppy finish.

kappldav123 (3293) - Markkleeberg, GERMANY - DEC 19, 2010
Bottle looks really good, the beer in the glass also, zippy, nice head. Starts strong, hoppy-dry, also quite metallically and soapy. Finish not so well balanced, still hoppy dry. Should be more spicy. Only average!
