2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 Grima (1573) - Saarburg, Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - FEB 15, 2012
Sorry for the german rating, but this is a lousy rating from my "newbie" time (2007-2009), and it’s not worth of being translated. I just added it for the statistics, and to complete my backlog!
Im Glas steht ein kräftig goldgelbes Bier mit wenig Schaumbildung. Der Geruch ist malzig betont, dezent süß. Der Antrunk erfolgt ebenfalls malzbetont, mit leicht hopfig-herber Note im Hintergrund. Der Abgang zeigt sich wesentlich hopfiger. Auch der gesamte Verlauf nimmt an Bitterhopfen zu. Ganz ok...

50 cl bottle, rated on 19.10.2010
Yellow-orange colour, disappearing, thick head. Aroma has some butter and malt. Flavour has butter and is somewhat bitter in a harsh way. Aftertaste has some herbs. Palate has just the right amount of CO2. Helles with a little twist.
1.9 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20 Kristall-König (1642) - Oldenburg, GERMANY - AUG 27, 2011
Hopfiger und unpassend brotiger Geruch. Hopfig im Start. Alsbald aber sehr brotig und stumpf wirkend. Im Abgang intensiviert sich dieser Eindruck. Trocken-stumpf und bitter klingt das Bier aus. Nicht gut.Test vom 8.6.2010, Gebinde: Glasflasche
