Commercial Description:
(Translation from German)
With Heinrich Kiener began our ascention to the "Art of breweing of the highest degree". Completely after their motto "Only the best of everything" the Kiener family guarantees every generation quality and taste for the beer lover. Strictly after the Reinheitsgebot of 1516 we brew the favorite beer of H. Keiner with at least 12° malt extract after the original recipe from his time.

500 mL can: This is one bad pale lager. Is this beer’s logo a set of red stairs? Anyways, smells skunky & sweet, and tastes like it with a sour flavour hitting you up front & dominating the mouthfeel & the finish in an awful way. I’ll drink even the most inferior pale lagers if they are half tasty, but this is way too thin & sour, down the sink she goes.

(swing top bottle) Clear, golden colour with a big and slowly lacing foamy white head. Slightly dusty, moderately sweet malty nose with a touch of cardboard and shy herbal spice. Cara-malty and slightly bready taste with a moderately dry and (crusty) malty finish (06.08.08).

Bügelverschlußflasche: Medium sized, fluffy and lacy white head; light to moderate grainy nose; solid sweetish, slightly bitter flavour, medium bodied; solid sweet grainy finish with a light hoppyness. A pleasant, chewy brew.........

Golden color with a nice white head. Sweet buttery aroma with a bit of hop and malt. Moderated carbonation, sweet body, skunky hop taste. Robustic, grassy hop on the tongue.

Can 500ml - Beer store: Pours golden orange with a large head that settles to an almost clotted looking thin white head. Aroma: Oh no, alarm bells, very chemical hop, dryer sheet aroma with a peppery undertone. Flavour: Smooth initially, somewhat sweet, with a wet magazine cover flavour. A salty finish. Not great at all.
