mile (2107) - Helsinki, FINLAND - APR 23, 2013
Bottle. Dark golden, small to average and fully diminishing head. Moderate, malty and caramel sweetish aroma, some bread, faint hoppyness. Body is light medium, malty and sweetish flavor, some caramel and light bread. Finish is average, malty and sweetish, light caramel and light bread, faint hoppyness and light alcohol. Sweetish and bit thin-bodied kellerbier, too sweet for me.

330 ml bottle picked up in Regensburg, Germany. Pours an amber color with a frothy white head. Aroma is spicy honey, malt and cream. Taste is much the same. Palate ends a bit dry and suddenly.

motelpogo (5530) - Plzen, CZECH REPUBLIC - SEP 18, 2012
bottled. perhaps a bit of a surprise during a tasting session of german beers. rough and rustic breadiness, hinting at rye and pumpernickel. just could use some more bitterness to leave a finish that’s a little less messy

Lubiere (8243) - Ottawa, Ontario, CANADA - FEB 8, 2012
A hazed reddish amber beer with a thin white head. In aroma, smooth chalky malt with light grassy German hops. In mouth, a smooth caramel malt with maderized, oxidized notes, strong chalkyness, a bit of attenuated hops. Not bad. Bought as Herbsman Bavarian Organic Spezial, brown bottle, MLCC.
