The beer starts malty, export typical. Highly drinkable, slightly sweet in the mainpart, Not very deep in aroma. but smooth. The aftertaste is medium, malt, grain, sweetness and nothing.
the ideal beer for the kids to get drunk and the homeless on the street - but nothing to enjoy.
--> ok but nothing special. 8/12/8/8

50 cl. bottle @ home, bought somewhere in Germany. Golden with a big white head. Grainy hoppy aroma. Good bitter pilsener taste and aftertaste. Great German pilsener.

50cl bottle from Appellation Wines. Pours golden with gentle bubbles and a decent head for a lager. The nose has green beans and some gentle pale malt. The taste has a rich toasty note with a fresh grassy finish. The palate is light to medium bodied with a long cleansing finish. Overall, this is a lovely lager.

A strong but standard fair lager out of Germany, although has the brew character of that country.

Feb 2010: Brown 0.5 litre bottle, drank and reviewed with two months left towards the ’Best before Date’. Poured into my Veltins stemmed tulip three times (the glass is a 0.2 Litre one). Light gold, light for an Export/Dort, the pure white head makes it look even more like a lager/pilsner. Each pour produced the same well formed head, each in turn left some good lacing on the glass. You have to hunt for a smell, some grainy aromas and not much else, a mini hop and yeast esters if your nose is good, otherwise nothing. The taste doesn’t have the sharpness and depth the better Dorts have, more a pleasant pilsner than a heavy export beer. So, light in colour, light in body and flavours. It is a good enough beer, but isn’t the greatest for style, if it was a pilsner the scores would have been higher.
