4/VIII/2012 - on tap @ Brauerei Kneitinger (Regensburg) - BB: n/a - (2012-826)

Clear golden yellow beer, creamy white head, very stable, adhesive, nice lacing. Aroma: grains, stable, hay, little herbal, some overripe fruits (banana). MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: some (carbon?) sour first, a little bit of grains, slight sweet touch, citrus. Aftertaste: some citrus, grains, hay, cow fodder, nice bitter dry ending. Very refreshing, I’ll give ’m that, but maybe the high summer temperature in the city had something to do with it as well. ;-)

Bottle. Light golden, average and moistly diminishing head. Light, malty and lightly sweetish aroma, faint grassy hoppyness. Body is light, malty – grainy and lightly sweetish flavor, faint grassy hoppyness. Finish is short to average, malty and lightly sweetish, faint grassy hoppyness. Watery pils – lager.

Green-glassed bottle by 05.12.2012 (i.e., December, not last week). Very sweet nose with light grass and citrus, even some bright malt. Clear yellow-golden with a fizzy white head. Taste lightly sweet, light bitterness, thin malt with touch of cardboard, not stale or dirty per se but a little industrial into into the aftertaste. Medium body.

Clear golden with a medium white head. Sweet malty aroma with butter and caramel notes. Flavour was fairly sweet with malty and caramel notes. Finished sweet.

Bottle, shared by fonefan. It’s a clear, yellow to golden beer with a small white head. Nice fruity, slightly perfumed, hops in the aroma, on a malty background. Sweet and malty flavor with a pleasant hoppyness giving bitterness. Medium body and a pleasant bitterness in the finish. A rather pleasant and quaffable one, but nothing special. 090821

50 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a small white head. Aroma is mild spiced and grassy. Mild sweetness, vague butterish note. Mild spiced flavoured too. Ends mild bitter and lasting butterish finish.

on tap at the brewery in regensburg. golden with a promising light green tinge. surprising whiff of alcohol. couldn´t taste much other than metallic bitterness, started off okay but got a bit nasty by the end of the glass

GBBF 2003: It was supposed to be Kneitinger Dunkles, but the brewery send the wrong beer as a guy from CAMRA informed me. Orange nose - ok but not intense. Hazy orange-golden color, little layer of a head, leaving laces on the glass, no carbonation. Grassy, but slightly. Odd metallic finish.

Dieser "Bier" erinnert mich sehr stark an Wasser, sieht dafür aber eher aus wie Pisse. Im Mittelteil wird es für eine kurze Zeit ein wenig hopfig, im Nachgeschmack dagegen schmeckt man wiederum kaum etwas. Absolut ungelungen, dieses Bier. Man sollte das Bier umbenennen von Edel-Pils in Diät-Pils, das würde den Geschmack besser beschreiben und man wüsste, worauf man sich einlässt. Test vom 2.4.2005, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 4,8,8,5,6,7 - 6,65

At brewery. As golden as a helles. Looks like one too. White head. The aroma is odd, slightly phenolic, and sulfuric but not enough to be off-putting. The finish has some grassy hop. Not sweet. Has a touch of diacetyl. Is on the brink of being undrinkable.
