FatPhil	2.5 Highlander Lager Tap (Highlander, Vienna) (5:3:5:2:10=2.5) Misty straw. Pulsey grainy aroma. Light palate, crisp carbonation. Pulsey grainy tast. Nearly good, just needs a bit of tweaking. Saturday, December 16, 2023
FatPhil	3.1 Highlander Märzen Tap (Highlander, Vienna) (7:4:5:4:11=3.1) Hazyish copper, large doughy head. Milky grainy aroma, a bit of honey too. Soft milky palate. Sweet malty taste, some light phenolics. Nearly very good, shame about the problems. Saturday, December 16, 2023
FatPhil	2.9 Highlander Stout Tap (Highlander, Vienna) (6+:4:5:3:11=2.9+) Black, large tight tan head. Burnt roasty aroma, a touch tarry. Burnt acidity in the taste, but otherwise a soft smooth palate. Burnt roasty taste, but a bit harsh and bitter. There's even some iron. OK I guess. Saturday, December 16, 2023

Goldbarren	2.6 Highlander Weizen Auch bei diesem Bier verlasse ich mich auf meine Erinnerungen 2012, da es dies an meinem erneuten Winterbesuch nicht gab. Es hatte nette Aromen, war aber ewas schwachbrüstig. Vielleicht ist es heutzutage aber besser. Wednesday, December 18, 2019
Goldbarren	3.9 Highlander Stout Dieses Bier konnte ich bei einem erneuten Besuch nach einigen Jahren leider nicht neu trinken.Es wurde mir anno dazumals als Guinness-ähnlich angepriesen. Und wirklich kommt man nahe an das mild-samtige Irische heran. Aber es behält neben schokoladig-kakao-artigen Aromen auch einen herben Unterton. Nicht perfekt, aber eine tolle Alternaive ohne Großkonzern. Wednesday, December 18, 2019
Goldbarren	3.6 Highlander Bock getrunken zur Weihnachtszeit 2019 eigentlich wollte ich das Stout kosten, welches ich vor einigen Jahren einmal hier getrunken habe, aber dieses war nicht verfügbar, da die Charge gekippt war. So wurde mir dieses Bier empfohlen. -Besser als kapuutes Bier zu bekommen, soviel Ehrlichkeit erfreute mich...und auch das Bier. Es ist ein Bock, das schon als solcher erkennbar ist, abernicht brutal kommt, sonder durch beerige-fruchige Aromen erfreut. Dazu Rosinen und Orangenschalen. Ein gutes Bierchen für kalte Winterabende. Wednesday, December 18, 2019
Goldbarren	3.7 Highlander Märzen Ein bernsteinfarbenes Märzenbier, das wie auch das Helle, naturtrüb und malzig im Körper. Dazu ein paar Hopfennoten, die aber das Kraut nicht fett machen. Das Helle mat mir ein bisschen besser gefallen, aber auch dieses hat seine Berechtigung. Ein volles, süffiges Wirtshausbier mit dem man wunderbar einen Abend verbringen kann. Wednesday, December 18, 2019
Goldbarren	3.9 Highlander Lager Vor Jahren einmal vor Ort getrunken und jetzt an einem kalten Adventtag verschlug es mich wieder hierher. Dies ist ein äußerst süffiges Helles mit einem malzigen Körper und voll getreidigen Geschmack. Auch eine leichte Buttrigkeit mag ich schmecken -fast fühle ich mich in eine tschechische Gasthausbrauerei versetzt. Ein Bier mit dem man einen ganzen Abend verbringen kann.

heavy	3.1 Highlander Stout Jan. ’16. On tap at the brewpub.It poured almost clear dark red-brown body with medium sized creamy nitro head. Pleasant, roasted malt aroma. Flavor was lightly bitter, both from roasted malt and decent herbal hops. Coffee, roasted sugar, dark bread, yeast. Medium body with short to medium yeasty and a bit dry finish. A dry stout, not a regular. Okay, empty as these get, a bit more yeasty which is just weird, but nice to see this style in a traditional brewpub in Vienna that has some links to the Isles. Wednesday, June 8, 2016
heavy	2.7 Highlander Märzen Jan. ’16. On tap at the brewpub. It poured hazy amber to light brown body with ivory head. A bit soapy herbal hop aroma with notable fruity and caramel malt. Flavor was lightly sweet, caramel with hops giving some dry bitterness in the same way as in their helles. It got a bit more sour in the finish though. Thin bodied anyway. I even liked the helles more, but the both lack body although they’ve shown some really fine notes. Tuesday, June 7, 2016
heavy	2.7 Highlander Lager Jan. ’16. On tap at the brewpub, as Helles. It poured a hazy lemon-yellow body with medium sized head. Very light chalky and herbal aroma. Flavor was light, too, yeasty and lemony. Thin and watery. A pleasant beer but definitely too light. An average brewpub helles I would say. Tuesday, June 7, 2016
