bottle, received from a friend who lives near Ravensburg. Golden yellow, large head. Malty nose. Full of malty flavours with hints of honey and herbs. Slightly hoppy. Typical flavours for a christmas beer.

Bottle 50cl from Quack-Duck thanks, a yellow beer with medium head. Nose is on dry grain and vegetable like. Aroma is grassy and vegetable, some sweetness, low malty, body is a bit boring with a lignt astringency and peppery hops, very basic.

Bottle from Quack-Duck, dekuji. Light golden color with medium long lasting white head. Malty aroma with earthy notes. Sweet malty taste with touch of honey. Light bitterness in finish. Not bad.

(bottle, courtesy of Quack-Duck) Clear, slightly greenish pale golden colour with a fluffy white foam. Moderately sweet malty, slightly strawy nose with a distinctive spicy and herbal hoppy touch. Strawy malty taste with a light biscuity touch; sweet-bitter malty finish with a light but balancing hoppy note. Reliable quality but also not outstanding.

Bottle (thanks to Quack-Duck): Clear, greenish golden colored, mid-sized, slowly collapsing white, almost creamy head, a touch of hops in the frainy-malty nose; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light to medium bodied; shorter dryish bitter-sweet finish. O.K., decent, absolutely nothing special.......

A light yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty, and so is the flavor. Nothing wrong, but nothing special either.

(Bottle 50 cl) Pale pilsener golden with a handsome, creamy and rather stable, white head leaving laces. Lightly hoppy nose. Medium body, distinct sweet pilsener malt and almost no bitterness. Not really what I expect from a winter beer. 260606
