An orange beer with a disappearing white head. The aroma is spicy and malty - quite boring. The flavor is sweet malty leading to a dry end. A boring pilsener.

(Bottle 50 cl9 Yet another beer from the richly varied Berliner Kindl brewery. Beautiful straw-golden colour and a magnificent head that refuses to stay in the bottle. Very soft, slightly sweet and less bitter than the average German pilsener. Different and pleasant. 101099

50 cL bottle. Pours golden yellow with no head. Slight grassy nose, dry. Carbonated mouthfeel. Flavour is grassy with a slight caramel malt note. Finish is dry hoppy. Ordinary.

Bottle, 4.6%. Old bready aroma. Clear pale yellow colour. Big white head. The flavour is better than the aroma. Nicely citric with a little malt. Only a hint of sewer.

Blond color, no head. Very light malt and honey aroma. Useless lager, with nothing more than a high bitterness.

Golden colour with a thin head. Herbal hops and bready malts. Moderate bitterness. Hop extract taste - vague grass and herbals. Decent malt background and respectably dry finish. A touch thin, as per style. For a regular Berlin swill, I like it.

Bottled (BB 12/2004)
Pale yellow, small white head. Hoppied skunked aroma, rubbery notes. Medium-bodied hopped pils, balanced but nothing spectacular. Hops are not in the top condition.
