Reutberger Klosterbier Export Hell

Clear golden with medium white head. Yeasty aroma with caramel notes. Flavor holds caramel malt and grainy notes. Ends sweet.

Slightly sweet cereal / corn flavor. Slightly spicy earthy bitterness. Much better once it warms up a bit. This beer is refreshing but nothing extrordinary.

500 ml bottle from Bevmo. Pours a yellow gold color with an ample white head that has good retention and leaves plenty of lacing. The aroma is simple with bread dough, biscuits and corn muffins. The flavor is soft with mild malts, breads and biter walnuts. The mouthfeel is full and smooth with lively carbonation. The finish is long with lingering sweet biscuit. Overall: A very refreshing beer.

This is a nice, tasty helles with a strong bready character. It’s slightly darkish gold with a faint haziness. It has a medium, slightly off-white head that slowly dminishes to a thin, permanent top and leaves a little lacing. The aroma is very nice, whole wheat bread, yeasty sourdough, honey, lemon, hints of pine and hefeweizen elements. The taste is a smooth, full-bodied, solid German lager, with a lot of toasty bread, crust, and mild but solid grass, pine, herbs, honey, yeastiness, and apple. It’s smooth and lightly on the oily side, with an engaging zestiness, making it light but tasty, subtly complex, and very satisfying. It has a light bitterness to balance the sweetness and give a light bite in finish. The flavours last well, never degrading.

Amber-yellow with a thick head. Wow - that is really appley, maybe even a bit Sprite-like. I can’t focus on anything else. The flavour is more malt accented with yeasty footiness, breadcrusty caramel and still some sharp apple. Quite rustic.
