Fauerbach Export

Pours a golden body with a medium sized white head. Lots of carbonation in this brew. Wheat on the nose, but a little grainy in taste. Medium bodied mouthfeel. I thought it was a pilsner at first, it makes sense thats its a dort.

Thanks to Bob for the bottle! Poured healthy medium golden with a well-retained cap of off-white head.. but it was chunkified. The aroma picked up soft bready and caramel notes with dry herbal notes, lemon zest, and sour grains surrounding. The flavor was more centered around the caramel with a bit of cardboard, sour malts, and slight vegetal on the back.. had a tacky, sweeter finish that wasn’t very enjoyable. Lighter-bodied with tackiness, sour notes, and high carbonation throwing off the flow on the palate.. drinkable, but not very good.

Appearance: Pours a clear, yellow-orange body with a wispy, white head. Smell: Mild aroma of spice and damp grain. What a snoozer! Taste: Pale malts with a touch of sourish grain and a handful of biscuit crumbs. Big pop of Noble hops and bitterness. Lightly sour finish. Mouthfeel: Thin-bodied. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: Oh, I wanted to love this one, really I did! But I did not. Pass!

Pours a golden yellow color with a a white head. Aroma is malt, honey, grain, and some peppery hops. Flavor is grainy, honey, a hint of sweet apple, and slight peppery finish.
