(Bottle, 2 litres, at One Pint Pub, Helsinki, on 2008-11-10) Brownish orange. Cloudy. Dense long lasting medium sized white head. Medium bodied palate with lot of carbonation. Some butter and cowhouse in nose. Sourness, banana, bitterness, butter and fruitiness in taste. Fruity and lightly bitter aftertaste. The beer in the bottle may have gone a little bit stale during transportation from the South of Germany to Finland.

Draught Good amberish head over shiny, but cloudy orange-foxy beer. Banana! Banana!! Banana!!! Plus wheat & some orangearoma. Orangey, near-phenolic, banana and cloves in the mouth. Perfect sweet-sour balance. Medium bodied, well-filled, aromatic palate. Nice Weisse, that makes the trainpassage out to Feldkirchen well-worth.

Dark red brown colored with medium sized yellow head. Hazy appearance. Fruity banana aroma with fine grainy hints, yeast also present. Medium bodied. Flavor is even richer with grains and some sweet caramel. Aftertaste has some bubblegum and yeast. Excellent, specially after long walk from underground.

Draught at the brewpub. Sweet and sugary aroma. Cloudy dark brown colour, small creamy tan head. Citric and slightly buttery flavour. Sugary aftertaste. Not undrinkable, but there are plenty of better beers out there.

On tap at Flieger. Dark brown colour with generous head. Orange and peachy. Alcohol content of 8.1% very well masked. Butterscotch aftertaste. Very enjoyable, one of my favourite beers at the Oktoberfest.

Cloudy orange-amber color; rocky head. Quite malty and spicy aroma. Ordinary taste, spicy, a bit sweet, malty, chewy, candies, a bit too much carbonic-aggressive. Ordinary palate with some light fruitness (banana…).

Slight ester & banana aroma. Murky orange brown, finely carbonated nice creamy head. Estery yeasty banana taste. Dust aftertaste. Lightbodied. They could have done better.

Slight malty aroma. Nice reddish amber hue; white head. Light malt in flavor. A pleasant brew from a fantastic brewpub in the outskirts of Munich once visited by Michael Jackson.
