(Can 500ml note the ABV is 4.8%, otherwise this seems the same - 2 in black circle, 11 degrees) Pours clear golden with lovely big dense white head. Aroma is corn / grain. Light body, good carbonation. Taste is rather odd. There’s some malty sweetness at the start with some subtle earthy spicey notes. This is followed by a sweetness I cannot place with a maybe peardrop hint to it. There’s some metallic bitterness in the finish which is not particularly pleasant. It is not great, but it gets more acceptable as you drink it.

Heller, leicht süßlich pappiger Antrunk. Etwas Kleber, was sowohl im Geruch als auch im Geschmack durchkommt. Leicht herb, kaum Nachgeschmack. Okay. 7/7/6/7//6

Bottle courtesy of Erzengel, many thanks! Clear golden color. Papery wet cardboard aroma. Taste is lemon and subtle black pepper. Inoffensive.

Many thanks for this beer to Beerhunter111. Pours a pale golden color. Aroma is weak and seems a little sweet with little malt baking or hops.
