Bottle: Orange coloured, medium-sized off-white fluffy head, lasting, cloudy; fruity (citrus, grains) and yeasty nose with a tinge of herbal hoppiness and some bready notes; fizzy, but very smooth; starts sweet and fruity; light yeasty body, mild bitter-fruity aftertaste. O.K., quaffable; should not be mixed up with a Weizen, some qualities are similar........

Die Schaumkrone hält mittelmäßig, der Körper hat eine schöne Bernsteinfarbe. Geschmack: Süffig-mild, viel CO², fruchtig. Mittelmäßig. Test vom 4.9.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,9,11,10,14,10 - 10,10

Pours amber yellow unfiltered cloudy body with white creamy lacing head. Aromas are hops, sweet malts, grains and grass. Palate is medium-bodied watery, with medium lively carbonation and mouthfeel. TAste is refreshing, dry and hoppy. Aftertaste somewhat malty and rounds up in a dry floral hops flavours. Balanced Landbier with good amount of fresh hops and dryness. Quite good.

Pizzeria Paradiso, Alexandria tap ($6): Pours a cloudy orange/yellow with a white head. Aroma is pretty typical of the style: vegetable, German hops, and a light malt backbone. Taste is hardcore lager taste all throughout. Nice hoppiness is present. Good malts. Good balance. This is a brew I was quite happy to have. Simple, but well-crafted.

Clear yellow pour with a small white head. Floral citrus notes, light carapils, herbal dough, and lemon notes lead to a light body with a moderately clean finish. A bit too doughy in the finish, lacking that nice crispness I enjoy out of this style.

Draft. Hazy golden tellow color, scant head. Aroma of lemon rind. Taste is very bitter straw and cardboard.

Tap. Pours lightly hazy orange with a small, fizzy white head, short retention with spare lacing. Aroma is meal and cereal malt and a clean lager character. Flavor is malt forward with light hops and bitterness and a sweet finish. Light body, warmth and carbonation.

Its name gives it, it’s for summer, and it has to be really cold, as if it was to hide the flavour... whatever...

I had this one a long time ago. If I have the chance to drink it again, I’ll update this rating

The beer in the glass is bright orange-yellow with a nice fine-pored head. The beer smells yeasty and fruity, slightly citrusy, with some flavor of hops. It starts very mildly hoppy, with strong fruity aromas and sweet yeast-fermented notes. The middle part shows yeasty-sweet, slightly fruity, with good hop flavors and some grains. Goes to a hoppy, yeasty-sweet and grainy finish!

Pours a thick and cloudy amber color. Has a taste of toast and very little oxygen. Too bitter for the taste of a Hofbrau in my opinion. I was slightly led down.
