bottle. Dark golden yellow, nearly amber, large head. Intensive flavours of malt, caramel, honey and roasted malt. Very well balanced, I really loved this one.

(bottle, traded with quack-duck) Clear, golden colour with a foamy white medium head. Shy, light-sweet, strawy, grainy aroma with a whiff of honey and traces of spicy hops. Sweet-bitter flavour, medium to light bodied. Grainy malty taste with a touch of honey towards the finish, which is slightly sweet and a bit sticky with light herbal hoppy notes. Okay but nothing world-shaking.

Bottle. Clear light yellow golden color with a small fair lacing white head. Aroma is moderate malty, sweet, grain, fruit. Flavor is moderate sweet and light bitter with a average duration. Good balance. Body is light to medium, texture is watery. Nice and easy to drink.

Metallic golden, with ever so slightly yellowish, dense, whipped eggwhite-like head. Herbal nose, pilsnermalt, fresh greenery. Quite sweet, very malty, grains. Very slight bitterish lining retronasal, but not enough to be called hoppy. Quite fullbodied brew for a rather discretly alcoholic beer. Quite prickly, carbonised MF. Soft, mild Festbier. It’s typically well-made, but cannot aspire to any real greatness. Thanks for this rare bird, Sebastian!
