0.5 l bottle from ’P&M Getränke’, best before August 2017. Clear, golden yellow with a medium large, foamy, stable, white head. Sweetish, malty and slightly floral aroma of honey, caramel and hints of vanilla. Sweetish-malty, slightly floral and a little grassy taste of honey, vanilla, some caramel, traces of straw and hints of butter, followed by a short, slightly bitter, a bit grassy-spicy finish. Medium body, slightly creamy and a bit effervescent mouthfeel, average carbonation. Decent Lager!

Hazy yellow with minimal white head. Aroma is grass, flour, a little of light fruits, very balanced. Taste is little fresh sourness and some buttery sweetness. Also some malts. Not quite enough tartness for me. Little carbonation, quite smooth. I like it.

Bottle, thanks jonas! Hazy golden color with white head. Aroma is caramely, bready, yeasty, nutty, a bit straw. Taste is caramel, malty, bready yeasts, a bit nutty, a bit herbal, a hint of booze. Quite chewy for this ABV. Silky mouthfeel. Lecker and underrated, if you ask me.
