330ml bottle. Murky, orange, dark golden colour with average to huge, creamy, slowly osteoporosing, moderately lacing, white head. Cautious, minimally fruity, hoppy aroma, grainy malty background, hints of orchard fruit and muesli. Taste is mildly bitter hoppy and slightly strawy and grainy, pale malty, almost no fruitiness whatsoever, maybe some yellow stone fruit; tastes like and Old School Helles in a subsided, smoky train station restaurant in the late 70s.
Slightly creamy, watery texture, smooth and soft, simultaneously minimally dry palate, medium, mildl yprickly carbonation.
Very "homebrew-ish" indeed, surely not infected, but somehow not serious and evoking the question: "What's that supposed to be?"

0.33 l bottle from 'Homberg's große Bierwelt', best before August 2025. Hazy, golden orange with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, quite fruity-floral and a little resiny aroma of mango, orange and some passion fruit. Slightly sweet, moderately bitter, quite fruity-floral and minimally resiny taste of orange, mango and passion fruit, followed by a short, gently bitter, slightly dry finish. Almost medium-bodied, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Pleasant Pale Ale, rather crisp with quite some bite.
