Very good, dense yellow head, stable, over finely carbonated clear amber beer. Exotic fruit, passion fruit, citrus(peel), lychee, rosewater, caramel, fine green leaves. Herbs as parsley, cilandro, on top of caramelly fruitesters; with grape, grapefruit, lychee, bitter melon. Also some earthy notes, peppery. Hopoil galore, and a quite bitter edge overlying sugars. Very (hopoil)slick, oily, viscous. Medium bodied, creamy by the impossibly stable head - some iron? The AAA moniker is somewhat cheap, but the quality certainly is A+. Purchased at the brewpub

Taster from bottle at ABC Awards, Ried im Innkreis. Yellow clear color, small white head. Smells earthy, toffee, light pepper. Medium body, soft carbonation. Tastes earthy, tobacco, light pepper, light pines. Finishes light to medium bitter with notes of pines, tobacco and earthy notes. Pretty decent one

Bottle. Pours amber colour with white head. Decently combined biscuits-y and hoppy notes are present both in aroma and tase. Medium lasting bitter finish, light body and soft carbonation. Pleasant amber ale.

In my point of view, this beer is closer than an ale instead of a red ale, hoppy, malt, side of weizen, fruity, refreshing.15.02.2017, bringing back from Vienna, tasting it at Lausanne, Prélaz with a good ocopa.

Bottle from Interspar, Feldkirch. Aroma is biscuity malt, hops, sweetish fruity notes, some orange. Flavour is light sweet and moderate bitter. Body is medium. Fairly nice hoppy Austrian Amber Ale.

330ml bottle pours out golden topped with a sand head. Nose is light caramel grain malts some light citrus hops. Taste is more of the nice sweet caramel toast malts and a little pithy bitterness on the end.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours amber with a slight haze and a smallish, off-white head. Aroma of crystal and biscuity malts. Medium body, slightly sweet caramelly malts but balanced with quite some bittering hops. 00923
