1.4 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 4/20
Butter-like aroma. Sweet and weak brew. Rather carbonated. Some malty notes around the palate and finish.

Splügen Quinto, <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Ratings/Beer/ShowBrew />The label says: "Rich, deep, natural and with a full and pleasant taste, this new beer by Splügen, unfiltered, is brewed with 5 fine cereals: Wheat, Barley, Oats, Rye, Spelt."
Cloudy blond color. Light wheat aroma, paper, corn. Thin mouthfeel, not enough characteristic. Ordinary finish, just more bitter than the average.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 8/20
A slightly hazy orange beer with a small and fast disappearing head. The aroma is slightly sweet and malty with a hint of menthol. The flavor is slightly sweet and malty with notes of oranges. It ends on a slight bitterness, that prickles the tongue. A very watery beer.
2.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Nice, deep golden color; good head. A friend of mine liked the full malty aroma. What I didn't like was the absence of a real taste. Very little trace of hops; almost non-existent bitterness. Watery, drinkable, forgettable.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Pale and somewhat hazy. Medium bodied, complex malt character, low bitterness.
3.1 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
nice idea. reasonably dry but not hoppy or very bitter. good to see the oats in there though
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
A very pleasant beer.

UPDATED: JAN 17, 2004 Pretty disappointing considered its ingredients

hazy orange colour, few foam, grain and peanuts aroma, light fruity notes, medium-bodied, sweet and dry with a light bitterness - not bad (6/4/6/3/12) / I'm quite surprised that this is the same beer as the swiss one.
Feldschlösschen Quinto:cloudy orange colour, few head, poor nose with grain and malt, notes of peanuts, medium malt body, sweet and boring, moderate malty finish - Feldschlösschen worked really hard to produce a 5 grain beer without any character; great work ...
