Swing-top bottle. Clear pale golden initially - You have to fight the yeast out of the bottle for the Zwickl look. Strawlike light minerally aroma. Lightbodied, a bit straw malt, minimal fruity yeast, mostly minerals. Not exiting.

Wässriger Antrunk, eigentlich auch Mittelteil und Nachgeschmack. Genauer betrachtet lässt sich eine getreidige Nuance finden, auch eine etwas süße Note ist dabei. Der Abgang ist minimal hopfig. Muss nicht sein, sowas! Danke an AUXBURG1986 Test vom 7.11.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,4,10,4,9,5 - 5,85

Bottle 500ml. w. swing top.

Unclear light to medium yellow color with a large, frothy, good lacing, fully lasting, white head. Aroma is moderate malty, grain, hay, sweet malt, sour malt, soured milk notes. Flavor is moderate sweet, light light acidic and light bitter with a average duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft. [20101021]

Bottled@Fonefan. Yellowish colour, small white head. Aroma is citrus, wheat, some earth and mild notes of herbs. Flavour is citrus, earth, and some grains. Mild harsh notes, but overall quite nice. Quite easy palated.

Bottled. A hazy light golden beer with a beige head. The aroma has notes of malt and lemon. The flavor is sweet with notes of malt, straw, and citrus. A bit boring. Thanks yespr for sharing.

50 cL bottle. Pours hazy yellow with a lacing white head. Mild citrus fruity hoppy aroma. A bit flat malty with a light oat-like flavour and texture. Solid bitterness and distinct acidic touch. Into a dry and slight bitter finish.

bottle, thank you pivnizub. Hazy golden yellow, large head. Yeasty and malty nose. Medium-bodied, malty with a good portion of hops and a shy but present sourness.

Bottle, 5.0%. There was some yeast chunks at the bottom, so it was rolled before serving. Weak citric aroma. Greyish and very pale, hazy yellow colour. Nice stable white head. Soapy flavour at first, turning a bit citric and vaguely yeasty. Low bitterness. Not even really refreshing. Disappointing.

Gives off a distinctive aroma, almost a heavy set hops smell; cloudy in appearance, otherwise it is quite cloudy; taste is somewhat interesting, it goes from an initial lightness, slight bitterness, then almost watery, then as you swallow you get the subtle bitterness. Interesting.
