amber coloured body with almost no head a malty sweet aroma a sweet malty taste with a sweet bitter finish

Clear amberish coloured beer with almost no head and no carbonation. Finish is malty bit bitter.

Bottle, darker amber to brown coloured beer with almost no carbonation and a small white head. Malty caramel, light roasted aroma. Medium to full palate. FInish is malty caramel roasted with some light alcoholic bitter touches. Medium one.

29/07 Draught in Bard Celtic Pub in Rijeka. I think this is the one, as waitress told me it’s Vienna style. Poured clear red body with medium sized ebony head. Rather weak aroma but pleasantly, caramel malted. Flavor is somehow different than I’ve excpected - bitterish hoppy but malty at the same time, largely in form of sweet caramel. Pretty thin bodied, but still nice. It was interesting how the first sips revealed bitterness which was not quite representative alone, later moving into caramel sweetness which is felt specially on its long finish. Fine, interesting, but nothing great again.

Bottle at Chris_O’s 19th April 2008 tasting. Orange in colour with a malty aroma. Maltier in taste than a standard pilsner. A bit slick & quick on the palate but a good, clean tasting beer.

Cream colored head, pours reddish copper coloring, malty and sweet scent almost a caramel. Light bodied and easy drinker.

Amber color, small and delisicious beige head what dissappears quickly. Some roasted malt aroma with a bit fruity perfume. Roasted malt flavour with a little hoppy taste, sweety chocolate and caramell, some fruity taste. Smooth mouthfeel. Nice, drinkable one.

Bottle@Home. Aroma of malts, caramel and lightly spiced. Amber color, beige head, good lace. Malty, caramel, milkchocolate, light bitter, hint of herbs. Pleasant and easy going.

Bottle at Chris_o’s The Wolf tasting. Amber colour with a bit of syrupy malt in the mouth, but pretty decent. I enjoyed all of the Hirter beers I had which I bought from The Bohemian in Deal.

A Mes rate: Bottle at Chris_O’s Ha Ha Ha Ha Gimme the Cheese Tasting.
Rich amber with a rapidly dissipating head. Plenty of sharp bitter hops offset by yeasty notes. Slight caramel sweetness and spice. A reasonable vienna.
