One of the beers that's bringing me back home to lagers. It has some light citrus and apple aromas with a doughy malt finish. The hops are delicious in the mouth, with a little grapefruit and grass and a nice bready malt. It's quite complex, with a very pleasant aftertaste.

Schooner on tap at Beer Deluxe, Melbourne. Pale amber beer with a thin white head. Grainy nose. Light carbonation. Grainy, bitter, dry with some fruitiness. Nice lacing. Finish is short and dry without the sourness you get with some Pilseners. Nice easy drinking quencher, not too complex. Just nice.

Plutôt plaisant pour une pils cette Rattenhund brassée avec du perle et du spelt select. Elle se laisse tranquillement boire sans davantage de prétention. Le visuel est sur du classique pour le genre avec un blond limpide sans mousse. Le nez est sur les céréales et le miel avec de légères épices. Agréable mais simple tout comme à la dégustation avec cependant un bon équilibre dès l'attaque. Une très légère acidité aux accents citronnés donne de plus un peu de pep's à l'ensemble sur une intensité tout à fait respectable. En deuxième bouche, herbes et épices s'affirment avec un alcool à 4,8 % très bien. L'arrière bouche est à l'identique. La corpulence est moyenne tout comme la longueur pour un final plus tranquille sur un duo herbes/céréales. Se laisse boire.

Can. Pale gold with a good inch of white head that never quite disappears. Aroma is floral with earthy and spicy touches, lemon, light bread. Fairly light bodied with medium high carbonation. Malt is more crackery than bready. Clean and leanish with a punchy bitter finish that's mostly spicy. Drinks itself.
