Bottle. Just a great looking beer when poured into a Schneider Hefe glass. Clear yellow with a nice rising dough aroma. Flavor is a delicate balance between the sweet grains and German hops. This beer is pretty underrated.

Pig’s Ear BF.
Aromatic, rather sweet beer, the hops adding flowers rather than bitterness.

Yellow colored, little white head. Yeasty, cardboardy, let’s say earthy
aroma. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is earthy too with this cardboardy "ungespundet" tone, Refreshing and carbnated, still not very good brew for my opinion.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 10/20 LinusStick (2386) - Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA - AUG 18, 2007
This beer attempts what I believe the style is about. Don’t offer too much flavor but make it drinkable. Drank this during the Steelers exhibition game with Washington. Not that that has anything to do with the beer, that’s just for historical purposes. Aroma was lagery with some metal. Pour was a light gold, almost clear with a one finger white head. Taste was like water with some bread and a tad of hops in the background. Good carbonation and not much else.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20 Ernest (5113) - Boulder, Colorado, USA - AUG 18, 2007
Bottle. Head is initially small, frothy, white, mostly diminishing. Body is medium yellow. Aroma is moderately malty (toasted bread/grain), lightly to moderately hoppy (flowers), with a light note of honey. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly to moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Nice aroma with what smells like Hallertauer, and a good flavor balance. Nothing awesome, but a well-made helles.
