2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20 bierkoning (8109) - La Tropica, - JUN 30, 2007
A friendly elderly lady tended bar at this old fashioned Franconian brewpub and got me a bottle of this beer. Blonde, hazy. Malty, buttery aroma. Barnyard smell. Malty, but also a firm hopbitter flavor, in which the rural character is clearly noticed. Butter, even a hint of diacetyl. Very interesting lager: how long before this relic of old times fades away?

Süffig herber Antrunk, später wird das Bier etwas intensiver und nimmt hellmalzige Züge an. Sehr hell, unspektakulär. Süffig, leicht herb, erfrischend. 9/8/9/8//8
