Lunkie (1020), Glen Iris, Australia Feb 28, 2008 Hop malt aroma. Clear yellow orange brown colour with poor head and lacing. Bitter malt hop flavour.

ChrisTurner (199), Bulleen, Australia Jul 20, 2007 Bottle -- Yippee, a beer style I’ve never had before! A yellowy gold with suspended yeast and not a lot of carbonation. A medium rocky white head with not a lot of retnetion, although it never completely disappears, but quite a lot of lacing. Aroma is gentle: mainly matly with a hint of bitterness. Not as watery as I expected. Flavour is gently malty with some toastiness and sour fruit at the end. Not a bad drop. Quack-Duck (1976), Bodensee, Germany Jun 23, 2007 bottle. Golden yellow, large head. Malty, slightly hoppy. Well-balanced and very drinkable beer. Sully (1362), Woolloomooloo, New South Wales, Australia Feb 4, 2007 These little cheat sheets for us drinkers are invlauable. With such a relatively unknown beer such as a landbier in this country one wouldn’t now what to expect. From the description the intial slight ffffft when cracked caused me no concern. This pours well into the glass with a slight haziness and light biscuity colour, reminiscent of mum’s butter cookies. The nose is simliar with a touch of wheat and maltiness. I enjoyed the lack of carbonation in this beer and the ease of it going down, due largely to the fact that this was the first beer after a day in the sun that had me waterproofing a deck area. After 12 hours most beers would have been good but I was pleased with the softness and smoothness of the beer as it slid (quickly) down.
