Tap at Feige’s Stammhaus, Bochum, 27/04/13. Clear mid golden with a frothy white head that retains well. Nose is pale malts, grass, light caramel, sugars. Taste comprises light citrus, grass, caramel, mineral notes. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Drinkable pils - a little on the boring side.

A nice crisp pils, yet still only a pils, and enjoyable after some home project work tonite. The pour was its best feature, nice golden color with a very thick and rich foamy head. The lacing was quite solid also. The aroma was strong grass, some grains, and a light hint of vegetables or herbs. The flavor was strong dry grass over an almost bready initial light malt flavor. With increasing temperatures, the grassy hops took over and this was a rather hoppy bitter beast (for a pils anyway). Somewhat dry mouthfeel enhanced by a significant level of carbonation. Not bad. Much thanks to MoritzF, who through this one in as a gift in a trade with DerDoppelbock. A nice opportunity to sip a rare brew. Prosit!

Bottle. Golden clear colour with a little white head. Aroma of malt and little hops. Flavour of bitterness and dryness.

Bottled 50cl. Courtesy of pivnizub. A well made pilsener. Effective, good bitterness, hoppy. Probably even better on tap and without having a row with your girlfriend :-( Thanks a lot pivnizub!

Swing top bottle, dekuji pivnizub. Golden color with medium white head. Aroma of malt, grain some fruity hints. Taste, malt, bitter hops, fruity hints. Nice long fruity-bitter finish. Good German Pilsener.

Light sweet wet hay nose, yellow color, spongy head. Light pale malt, broad dirty hop bitter that drys the inside of the upper teeth like a dry martini. Light and refreshing, but not so interesting in the end. A good session beer.

(bottle) pours a clear golden colour with a frothy white head. rustic aroma of wet hay, floral hops and pale malts. flavour is mostly grainy pale malts and floral hops, with a light touch of cardboard. light body with lively carbonation and a light bitter finish.

In honor of pivinizub and MoritzF - thanks a lot pivnizub ! Medium white frothy head, medium lasting. Light golden color. Fizzy carbonation. Light hay nose. Intense hoppiness - very dry finish - long lasting. I like it a lot!

Upshot? A medium-dry German pils, with excellent bitterness. Very fresh from Wine of Dreams, bb mid-July 2011. Medium gold solid color, no bright yellowness. Saltine and herby flowers and big grassy aromas are huge here. Very nice. Nice body, nice lacing, good maintained carbonation. Flavor is hugely bready but natural and the alcohol is nowhere to be felt. Moderate-to-heavy bitterness. Doesn’t get too sticky but maybe a little close at the end, yet there is also a well-handled but still watery finish. Yeah, I didn’t like the watery palate at the end of the beer.

Nose is light toasty/bready malt, some spritzy hops. Flavor is bready malt, some light caramel notes, tingly hops. nice bread character in the finish.
