Gertiger Hopfenantrunk, der nur eine minimale Bitterkeit aufweist. Der Akzent liegt weiter auf dem Hopfen, bittere Noten spielen ab dem Mittelteil keine Rolle mehr. Leider ist der Hopfen nicht aromatisch genug um als alleiniges Aroma für Genuss zu sorgen, so treten am Rand trockene Blechnoten auf, die den Hopfen spürbar belästigen und den süffigen Fluss stören. Dennoch alles in allem ein schmackhaftes Pils, das, anders als die meisten anderen Biere der Gegend, seine Betonung auf den Hopfen legt. 9/9/9/8/9/9

Bottled. A light golden beer with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet with light notes of both malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of straw. The body is a bit thin.

Bottle. Grassy hop nose. Hazy pale golden, cramy lacing whire head. Light in the flavor department, a bit citric, non-commital. Lightbodied, flatish. Quite drinkable but not super-exiting. Slightly sulphury retronasal.

(Bottle 50 cl) Clear, pale golden with a white head. Clean and floral hop aroma. Medium body, clean and malty with a dry, hoppy finish. Decent. 311007

50 cL bottle. Pours pale and clear yellow with a lacing white head. Aroma is malty going into a slight dry, grainy and dusty note. Flavour is slight malty and seems rather dry. Finish continues along the dry note - rather uninteresting imho.

Bottled: Pale yellow color, low foamy head. Grainy aroma, some bitter hop notes. Flavor is light sweetish, grainy with some grassy and herbal hop notes in the end. Light bitter, dry finish. A very common pils.
