omhper (10140), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 11, 2005 Bottled. Cloudy yellow. Aroma of fresh barley and herbal spices. These aromatic flavours lingers from nose to finish, where also a hefty dose of hops sets in, creating a massively bitter finish. The mouthfeel is soft, and the body is light. A world class kellerbier, if you can tolerate all the bitterness. motelpogo (4111), Plzen, Czech Republic Oct 17, 2006 Updated: Jul 19, 2007on tap at cafe abseits in bamberg watching argentina hammer serbia. nice golden colour with a steady head. quite a tropical aroma - pineapple and menthol. some strawberry jam sweetness and a prickly minty finish. classy stuff MartinT (4241), Montreal, Quebec, Canada May 24, 2006 Impressions from the windowside:
-A blinking hop firmament showcases herbal, floral and grassy hop perfumes, all coalescing in a friendly, never overpowering manner.
-Sticky foam covers the krug, jealously wanting to cover the fact that this is pale golden(!) kellerbier (yes, I cheated).
-A complex continuum of citrusy, floral, herbal, and grassy hop petals form a botanical garden the likes of which I’d like to revisit more often.
-The ample effervescence manages to remain cushiony and comfortable.
-The malt supports competently, but doesn’t bring much flavor.
-Simply put, this is an absolutely marvelous session beer for hopheads.
From the bottle at Café Abseits, Bamberg. Dalle (1146), Viborg, Denmark Sep 11, 2006 Draught, Cafe Abseits, Bamberg. Golden color with fine head. Deliscious flowery, fruity and grassy/herbal aroma - complex. Fruity sweet and well rounded flavor, finishes dry. This was one of the 3 best beers I had during my stay in Bamberg. The others were Keesman Herren pils and Schlenkerla Rauchbier - served from the lagering tanks by Matthias Trum in the brewery cellar. joss (3076), Garching b. München, Germany Nov 28, 2003 Updated: Mar 26, 2006Citric yeast aroma and fine aromahops.
Orange/yellow with yeast in suspension and a big white frothy head.
Medium body, sweet malt and wild honey, fantastic hop balance dominated by aromahops, dry herbal finish with a added yeasty earthnotes. Sparkly dry mouthfeel.
