COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Nicht nur Kinder freuen sich auf Weihnachten. Dank dem fein ausgereiften Falken Festbier kommen auch grosse Geniesser in Festlaune. Goldgelb leuchtend wie Engelslocken und mit schneeflöckchenweissem Schaum – eine helle Freude. Als vollmundige Spezialität schmeckt es malzig-aromatisch und ausgewogen. So zaubert es nicht nur durch seine 5,2 Volumenprozent ein seliges Lächeln ins Gesicht. Das Falken Festbier gibt es nur zur Advents- und Weihnachtszeit – der Rest des Jahres ist Vorfreude. Das Falken Festbier ist auch ein kleines Geschenk der Brauerei Falken an die Bierkenner, denn es wird zum gleichen Preis verkauft wie das Falken Lagerbier hell.

Koelschtrinker (7060) - Köln (Cologne), North Rhine-Westphalia, GERMANY - MAY 25, 2011
Milder bis laffer Beginn, in dem sich Malznoten entäuschend präsentieren. Auch später bietet das Bier kaum mehr, laffe Gerstennoten treiben das Bier in den Abgang. Einfallslos. 7/6/8/5/8/6

pivnizub (7239) - Bochum, Porúří, GERMANY - MAR 13, 2010
Bottle (thanks to Allen!): Light sweetish-grainy nose, medium-sized white head, golden coloured; light sweetish (-grainy) flavour, medium bodied; short, thinnish bitter-sweet finish. Disappointing......

MoritzF (7402) - Bochum, GERMANY - FEB 28, 2010
(bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a big and blond, not very persistent foamy head. Sweet and minimally bready malty nose with a tinge of dust and herbal hops. Light-bitter flavour, light to medium with a soft carbonation. Pale malty, slightly bready taste with bland herbal accents; moderately dry and slightly bitter hoppy finish, initially with metallic notes, that fade quickly. Profane brew. 24.II.10

Bov (7364) - Bienne, SWITZERLAND - FEB 2, 2010
courtesy of Philipp Sigg and Thomas Schneider - clear golden colour with a long lasting white foam; shy aroma of oily grass; medium-bodied and with a slightly oily palate; sweet and with a very low bitterness; short vanishing malty aftertaste with light buttery notes - no character

Allen (2469) - SWITZERLAND - JAN 11, 2010
Bottled 50cl. Reminiscence of apple in the taste. Malty. Slightly sour. Low bitterness. I didn’t really enjoy this beer.

Quack-Duck (5921) - Down South, GERMANY - JUN 21, 2007
Christmas beer, bottled. Golden colour, medium-sized white head. Mylta nose, malty flavours, slightly reminiscent of honey and herbs. Dry and hoppy finish.
