Great franconian stuff.......

4.4 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 17/20
Draught, Oct. 2009 at Brauerei Beck Trabelsdorf: Misty straw-peach hue. Creamy clumps of pasty white foam comprise the head. Dusty yeast bites the nose, with a tantalizing blend of spicy, herbal hops showcasing aniseed and black pepper. Sulfur is vague enough to the point of being pleasant and creating characterful charm. Soft, fluffy and dense carbonation. Zippy hops unleash a coarse lemon-zest bitterness as deep-rooted toasted malt lends hearty crunchiness. Yeast imparts texture and also a bit of toasted dough which brilliantly echoes the honeyish sweetness. Hops are dripping with succulent nuance. Malt exemplifies remarkable depth with a honey-drizzled cakelike heft and a cookieish snap. Superb balance. Yeast coats and layers the tongue with a dusty residue while the malt continues to dish pout more dextrinous weight. Divine fusion of lemon, minerals, and honeydew lend an uplifting quality and greatly enhance drinkability. Finishes crisply with leafy, herbaceous hops along with an accompaniment of deeply complex toasty, nutty, cakey, honeyish malt and doughy yeast muscle. The balance and complexity here, coupled with the dizzying array of nuances, is unparalleled. A very special experience was this.

Hazy copper color. The aroma is a bit malty, with vague cereals. Sweetish malt flavor; low bitterness between simple and pleasant.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Im Antrunk ist das Bier malzmuffig und herb, wird aber zum Mittelteil frischer. Ein muffiger Grundton bleibt aber bestehen, der erdige Hopfen kann dagegen nichts ausrichten. Er einhaltet minimale Bitternoten, die passend zum Bier sind, die Süffigkeit aber trotzdem verringern. Platt herber, und einfallslos wirkender Abgang. 10/9/8/7/7/8

Deep yellow, big white head. German hop aroma, pale malts, yet lightly sweet. Flavor was somehow sweet and fruity, almost like raspberry. Easy to drink.
