Bottle (courtesy of QuacK-Duck!): Golden, bigger fluffy white head, sweetish-grainy and malty nose with a faint tinge of herbal hops; light to medium bodied, moderate sweet-bitter flavour, soft; slightly lingering sweet-malty and hoppy finish. Pleasant brew...

(bottle) Slightly unclear, greenish golden colour with a big and quite stable foamy white head. Grainy malt-accented aroma with notes of oak honey, vanilla and a touch of herbal, slightly woody hops. Slightly bitter-sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a smooth carbonation. Soft pale malt-character with grainy accents and mildly hoppy influences, leading into a moderately dry bitter-sweet finish. Clean but also unspectacular "Festbier". 07.IV.10

Thanks for the bottle Quack-Duck. Grainy full aroma. Pale golden, lacing, collapsing head. Relatively lightbodied, strawlike malt, metallic hops. Mellow mouthfeel. Dusty finish. Meh.

Finally: A beer whose name is spelled as it is pronounced: Feschtbier, not Festbier! Ortographically not quite correct, but phonetically very correct for the south of Germany. Linguistics aside, the beer pours a pale golden colour with a mid-sized white head. Malty nose with a fruity and woody accent. Rather lightbodied for a Festbier, pardon me, for a Feschtbier. Malty body with hints of vanilla and honey, also sourish-woody hops in the finish. The carbonation is rather high and reminds me of a Kristallweizen. Perhaps I shall keep a bottle and see how it develops ;-)
