bottle from Bierzwerg. Hazy pale golden yellow, large white head. Hoppy nose with a touch of yeast. Malty base, shy hints of caramel, slightly yeasty, lovely hops throughout.

Bottle by 21.10.12, and again, love the QR code pioneering. Faint citrus and seemingly some light wheat in the nose, yeasty. Cloudy white-yellow body with a rocky white head. Sharp and crisp, light bitterness and heavy citrus, light tang and a touch of airy malt. Medium body, smooth herbal/grass notes. Not quite sure what to make of it.

33cl Bottle. Appearance is opaque, orangish color with medium, off-white head. Aroma is sweet malts and some grains. Taste is simple with pale malts, grains, and medium, floral hops. Palate is medium-bodied, smooth texture, average carbonation, and a sweet, semi-dry finish.

Hopfiger Beginn mit einer sich zurückhaltenden Herbe. Das Hopfenaroma bleibt auch im Mittelteil im Vordergrund, dahinter grasige und leicht nussige Noten, zudem hefige Noten, die sich mit der Bitterkeit vereinen. Grasiger, weich ausgleitender Abgang. Feines Bier! 9/12/12/11/11/12

Draught at the braugasthöfen
Hazy light blond color; generous head, compact. Strangely there is aroma of Weizen, mild; then, timid, some noble hop appears, a bit lemony too. The mouthfeel is light, dry too; we can’t really talk of malt flavor, but there is a good bitterness level, and the hopping is partially aromatic, with a light grassy touch. Simple but pleasant.

Strong golden yellow color, slightly cloudy. Yeasty, sour, slightly fruity smell. Starts very acidic, with a strong yeast-aroma. Quickly, the beer gets fruity-sweet, with delicious yeast aromas. Later in the beer keeps sweet yeasty, slightly fruity.

0.33 l bottle. Hazy golden color. Sweet honeyish and fruity aroma with toffee. Sweet honeyish and toffeish flavor with some rough herbal bitterness in finish. Seems like this has lost some of its freshness.
