33cl bottle @ Plus, Flensburg. Pours a clear golden with a frothy white foam. Nose and taste is clean of hay and grass. Little thin palate. Dry and slight sour Dortmunder notes. Dry end.

Average frothey head. OK smell, very watery flavor, no apparent aroma. Lacks maltiness, lacks hops. lacks just about everything. Better than water (maybe).

The bottle looks good, the beer in the glass also. Starts strong, then a bit weeker, the finish is dry and a little bit alcoholic. Not so good!

Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw, and so is the flavor, leading to a slightly bitter finish.
