0,5 l can. Pours slightly hazy, golden with big, medium lasting white head. Big bubbles. Aroma is stale, slightly sour, a bit of grainy malt, not much else. Taste is low sweet and medium bitter. Flavor is mainly dough, a bit of bread and cardboard. Body is OK, carbonation quite lively. Finish is short, dry, cardboard and a bit more bitterness.

My daughter has bought this beer,
yestetday, in Sevilla. It is the German
version of this beer, brewed at
Weihenstephaner. This one is really
smooth, malty, a bit watery, fairly
carbonated, light bitterness, German touch

Tap at New Takumi. Clear deep golden. Hay, maybe. Clean, not too sweet, no issues. It is drinkable.
