3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
bottle, bought at the brewery. Johann Turmair (15th century) was born in Abensberg and therefore called "Aventinus" ("der Abensberger"). Clear deep golden yellow, large white head. Malty-fruity nose. Medium-bodied, solid malty background with pleasant fruity hints and rather shy floral-citrusy hop flavours. Lively carbonation.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
It’s warm golden with a creamy, white head and the aroma has notes of malt, bread and flower. The flavor has a light sweetness and notes of malt, bread, flower, light biscuits and straw, and the finish is dry.
2.7 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle looks very simple. Beer in the glass deep golden, small head. Starts hoppy-grasy, a bit moldy-soapy. Finish too unbalanced, some metallically notes. Not my favourite!
