[9/20/11] Mahleket Hanikot Shotrim ’11 tour. Bottle at the venue in Trzebiel, Poland. Slightly metallic and grainy aroma. Metallic flavor, pretty bitter with a bit of graininess. Light-bodied.

Can: Thanks to Fonefan: Medium vast white head on top of a clear yellow colored beer. Smell hops, herbs, grains and leaves. Taste hops, malts, hint of caramel, hint of fruit, herbs, grains and low to slight medium bitter. Low to medium bitter herby aftertaste. Low carbo, medium body, soft mouthfeel and a texture between water and cream.

500 ml fles. goed bier. goede bitter. niet zoet. dus een echte pilsener.

Clear gold colour with no head at all. Smells like rice and malts. Tastes cardboard, malty, toffee. Watery, low carbo.

Another polish strong and bad flavoured alcohol tasting golden clear white headed.

Pours amber yellow, clear with a small white head. Aroma is moderately malty and toasted bread. Flavour is moderately sweet malty with light bitterness. Body is light with soft carbonation. Drinkable. Finish is rather short dry with moderate hop bitterness. Simple but clean and not bad.

Bottle @ home shared with Joes and DutchDrebus. Standard clear golden color, no head. Smell malts and grains. Taste malts, grains and cardboard. Strong firm carbo, low body.

Bottle poured to sampler glasses at a local geek tasting party. Displayed a clear, deep golden hue, with modest, creamy white head foam, and light spots and streaks of lacing. The aroma, while not the expected corn hints, was light grain, lightly sweet, and slightly tart. Medium to light bodied with medium carbonation. No real complaints except for the tartness, which didn’t fit the style especially with the softer carbonation. Okay otherwise.
