3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20 ACD (339) - Dublin, IRELAND - MAY 17, 2013
50cl bottle at Probus Wines, Dublin. Very light pale golden pour with thin white head. Aroma is bready malt and a bit of herbal spice - not too much going on. Taste brings that doughy sweet malt alongside some light earthy tones and herbaceous notes. Mouthfeel is medium - not as thin as I expected given the look of it. Some metallic notes in the finish, but not enough to be off-putting. Crisp and clean. This is certainly a tasty, uncomplicated, and sinkable lager.

2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 bartlebier (463) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - MAY 6, 2013
50cl bottle, already one of more exotic choices at the adventurously stocked local Getränkemarkt. - Lighter than typical Bavarian Helles that pours a disconcerting green-yellow watery transparent, with no aroma to speak of and a taste of dusty grains, modest grassy hops and hints of generally any West-European green fruit harvested before its time. If beers were harvested, this should have remained in the soil for another month or two.
