Aroma of hay, citrus, lemon, smoked meat. Flavour is a mild but welcome tartness, smoked. Very interesting combination of flavours. Refreshing and easy to drink.

Emelisse’s take on the much-debated Grätzer style, apparently a collab with Nögne Ö, though this is not mentioned anywhere on the label. Pours a cloudy ’old gold’ colour, cloudy ochre with deposit, adorned with a moussy, medium thick, egg-white head retaining thinning quickly but retaining well. Interesting aroma: fresh sorrel acetaldehyde, goat cheese, subtle smoked herring or even barbecue sausage accent, old apple juice, grilled bacon, chalk, soapy wheat, cooked rhubarb, sourdough, stale sweat, old dry sherry, green apple peel. Refreshing taste starting with a crisp, clean but soft and gentle lemony acidity, sour berries, kiwano, unripe peach, soft carbo, light umami accent of fresh green olives, supple maltiness, clearly wheaty (soapy and softly sourish) with a bready accent, some light smokiness retronasally, juicy finish with ongoing wheatiness and mild, gently drying acidity, a bit cava- or dry white wine-like rather than puckering sour; a soft but very notably chalky and somewhat soapy flavour remains after swallowing. Hops are very subdued, not providing any bitterness. I find it exciting that this brewery embarked on a style which is only recently being revived, but according to what I have read about it and compared with the few examples of it I had so far, I dare to doubt whether they got it right: if I have to believe the historical accounts relating to how the original Grätzer - or, more accurately, Grodziskie - was brewed, this should have been made with smoked wheat instead of smoked barley plus wheat, should have been ’cleaner’ (less estery), less (or even not at all) sour and should have been hoppier. Seems closer to a Lichtenhainer to me (seen the sourness) but then, both are under the same heading here and who said this brew was intended to be a historically accurate evocation of the Grodziskie style anyway... Apart from style, I must say I enjoyed this, it cleanses the palate with its soft sourness, but still shows some complexity and depth due to the (light) smokiness. In cases like this, I prefer to let my personal enjoyment prevail in my rating, rather than nitpicking over style accuracies. Enjoyable!

Light hazy pale golden colour, small frothy white head, recedes after a short while, light lacing. Light sour aroma, lemon, wheat, herbal notes. Complex taste, light sour, lemony, slightly sweet, smoky notes, bit salty. Light body, watery to oily texture, soft carbonation, light sour aftertaste, herbal notes, a strange brew, refreshing, nice.

Almost clear pale gold beer, small off white head. Palate is light and dry, mild fine carbonation. Thin pale malts, tangy mild citrus. Little sour vibe and something smoky and pukey, Dry finish. Never going to love this style I expect!

Bottle at home . It pours lightly hazy gold with a decent white head. The nose is smokey, meaty, sweet, parma violets, sherbet and light citrus. The taste is smooth, tart, smoke, limeade, lemon, smoked ham, grain, light sherbet and minerals with a dry finish. Light body and soft, mellow carbonation carbonation. This style is always gonna an unusual one, but the balance works for me. Enjoyable in its own way.
