Bottle (purchased at the former Wagner-Brauerei, Pottenstein): deep golden to light amber coloured, mid-sized, slowly collapsing off-white head; moderate pale-malty nose with a very distinctive touch of herbal hops; solid bitter sweet flavour, light to medium bodied, very soft MF; aromatic hops in the soft, spicy bitter-sweet finish. A franconian beer of excellent quality............

Jun 2, 2008 bottle, thanks to Bochum! Hazy golden colour, large head. Wonderful hopp nose. Full-bodied, very hoppy indeed, dry mouthfeel. Lovely hops, resiny and grass, slightly flowery. Solid malty background. Superb stuff.

May 17, 2008 (bottle) Clear, deep golden colour with a medium-sized, slowly lacing eggshell-coloured foamy head. Moderately sweet, very aromatic cara-malty nose with citrousy and woody hops. Moderately bitter flavour with a balanced cara-malty sweetness; dry and lingering sweet-bitter with fruity and woody hops. Fantastic Kellerbier with Märzen-strength (17.05.08).

Oct 5, 2007 on tap at the wagner place in pottenstein. copperish with a steady, splotchy head and a lot of small, uprising bubbles. aroma of honey, rye, oat, play-doh, copper, dynamic lifter and a slight dustiness. pretty bitter, some mellow stone fruit malt character. super drinkable stuff

Sep 16, 2007 Updated: Sep 17, 2007At Wagner in Pottenstein. I ordered a St Georgen Kellerbier and motelpogo ordered this - we both smelled our beers and simultaneously looked up at eachother and said "Wow". This one was an orangey copper colour, clear with good foam. Big peach and apricot fruit, German hops, glue, sweet sweet malt and a chalky finish. Massive flavours and massive deliciousness. Absolutely awesome stuff. If you are reading this go directly to Pottenstein - it’s awesome (the whole place I mean, not just this beer).
