Tap at the brewery. Light amber colour, off-white frothy head. Aroma is sweet malt, bit of hoppiness, wheat. Taste is pretty good, light fruity sweetness, solid maltiness, light caramel, apples, slight spiciness. Quite like this, maybe my favourite of the day.

Deep golden color with a slight tinge of amber, and a tall foamy white head. Rich malt aroma, biscuity and grainy, with a decent hop character as well. Rather fragrant indeed somewhat sweet and very rich. Rich malt flavor, biscuits, cereals. Round and smooth. Hops are in the background but always evident. Medium or better bitterness. Moderate sweetness. A nice, rich lager in the Helles style, but with a much stronger hop character—I guess a Dortmunder Export type. Very interesting and pleasant. Good hop bitterness, and a great hoppy finish. Probably their best beer I have had so far.

@ GJBF 2007. Golden color. Tosted malts, some fruit, and hops. Flavor is just and extension of the mediocre aroma. It’s not a bad brew, but just sorta there.

Deep golden color. Toasted barely nose. Soft fruity nose of bananas and peaches, which was a bit odd I thought. Soft mouthfeel, slightly winey with bananas and toasted malt and a nice toasted malt finish. I think it was aiming for a Dort, but it seem to have some odd, though not unpleasent, other characteristics.
