Won at the Rittmayer promotion. Murky golden body, thick white head - small. Lovely hoppy aroma, grapefruit, lemon, bubblegum soft dry maltiness. Excellent! Good herbal and lemony hoppy taste, soft, mild malty body, well balanced. Grapefruit pops up later on, quite distinctly. Bit dry, woody in the finish, bitterish. Would never say it has 58 IBU honestly. A lovely, lovely hoppy lager. Great job Rittmayer!

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours CEO, gold, with abundant and fluffy fine white foam. Aroma is citrus of grapefruit and mandarin, and grainy. Body is average with good carbonation. Taste is tendentially bitter, though with a decent base of malt. Finish is fairly long and bitter.

Bottle 33 cl. Hazy golden with a lacing, white head. Fruity and also citrusy from the Cascade & Citra used. There’s also a slightly chemical tang, that I’m not too fond of. Ends distinctly bitter. Not sure this is a Pilsener, the label describes it as an ESB meets Frankisch Pilsener - and the brewer told me they used the mentioned two US hops, so it’s very much a hybrid beer. 210317

Golden with little white head. Aroma is grapefruit, hay, slight corn, some funk. Very finetuned. Taste is a little sweet corn but also a lot of hop bitterness and a fresh carbonation hinge. Full body with a little fusels. Oily with a crispy fresh bite. Good and still true to the style.
Has a diacetyl problem but also a very nice citra character. Adventurous and nothing I'd expect to find at a traditional German brewpub.
