Medium sweet flavor, lightly fruity, some berries. Light bodied with average carbonation. Faint dryness in the finish, dry and toasty bread, hints of berries. Somewhat bland but not offensive.

500ml bottle (Snow@ChrisO)
Messy sweet yeasty bottom of the bottle, alas. Quite nice fruityness. Plenty of breakfast cereal. Would have been better to have an earlier pour, I’m sure.

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Sehr milder Antrunk von weichem Malz, die Aromenschwäche ist entäuschend. Süßlich, im Mittelteil hefig. Später wird das Bier zwar intensiver, auch hier ist es mir aber zu mild. Süßlich, malz-würzig, eher laff. Naja... 10/7/8/8/9/8
3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 13/20
Understated aroma, hard to pull much out, dried hay and grains with a tiny hint of leather. Flavor is very grainy, like whole grain bread with a tiny hint of an electrical fire note that actually kinda works with the beer, adds some complexity.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Swing-top bottle (from Koelschtrinker - danke). Sweet caramel malt, orange, and cherry aroma. Cloudy orange-brown color with large head. Sweet caramel malt and sour milk flavor with hint of orange. Nice body. Very good and different.
