Bottle bought by mail order in Japan. Bright golden orange color with a medium head. Warm malt nose, biscuits, honey, orange and stone fruit. Rich, estery flavor, floral, fruity, bitter. Intense. Great fruit and hops, with malt esters and hops working together nicely. Not in perfect condition, but still excellent.

Goblet pours a clear, burnt gold with a ring of white head. Huge malty nose, real Germanic, nickel, root veg, fresh bread. Flavors are chewy malt, candied orange, some brown sugar. Finishes off dry, a little peppery, medium full.

100ml draught, 7.2 % abv, at Hopfen+Malz. Crystal clear warm golden body, filmy layer, spotty lacing. Inviting on the nose with caramel malts, mid-dry. Quite tasty with caramel malts, biscuit and a note of leafy hops. On the sweet side of bittersweet ending. Fine bodied. Likable. (Aachen, 26.02.2026).
gave a cheers!

Copper with a white head. Toasted malts, light caramel, earth, mineral, a touch of dark malts. Medium to full body. Has a bit of booze in the dry finish. Decent.

Tap. Craft Beer Corner, Cologne. Clear medium gold. Slightly broken just off white lasting head. Taste is sweet and caramel like. Some charred pith bitterness. Drinks easy enough for the ABV. Maybe a little flabby. Feels over 7% actually. Bitter finish. Ok. Skewed.

Tap at BeerGeek. Med-thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bitterness, med-light sweetness. Does not feel entirely clean, light DMS going on, as well as diacetyl and rotten autolysis-like thing, not very much, but light is enough. Poor drinkability, average at best. The base beer seems pretty elegant, with rather light and nuanced malty character, is covered by off notes though. Pretty rare occurence in BeerGeek.

(Keg at Pikkulintu Puotila, 20241215) The beer poured deep golden and lightly hazy. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had honey, grass, grain and mildly alcohols. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, grain, honey, light sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty and bitter. Pleasant.
