Decent. Like that the font looks a bit like a black metal band logo, albeit legible.

Bottle picked up from Sulzberger Bierhaus Pfaffenhofen an der Ilm and consumed at home Thursday 27th April 2023 listening to Steve Lamaq and then his Round Table shortly on 6Music, making Chicken, Mushroom and Asparagus Pies. Pours mid gold, excellent clarity there is a large white head. Nice soft carbonation, good mouthfeel, quite clean tasting a little bit soapy hop as opposed to grassy hop. A little on the sweet side. Some gassy burps. It's good.

Bottle from the HoTM. It pours hazy yellow - gold with a medium fluffy white head. The aroma is soft, sweet, doughy white bread, custard creams biscuit, custard slice, hay, cereal and spice. The taste is crisp, dry, grassy bitterness, hay, peppery spice, floral accents, custard cream biscuit, doughy white bread and cereal with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not a huge amount to it, but I rather like it. A bready lagerbier. Satisfying.

Bottles from House Of Trembling Madness (2021) and Great Grog (2023). Clear pale golden body with a white head. Low carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of orange peel and straw. Flavour of lemon and dried grass. Thin to medium body with a smooth texture. Soft fizz. Clean and refreshing.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear yellow with a frothy, white head. Light to medium sweet with pleasant fresh cereal character, biscuits, white bread, slight bitter hay. Light bodied with fine, massaging carbonation. Balanced finish, more pale biscuits, straw, cereal. Tasty stuff.

Bottle, 0,5 liter, I like these big German bottles. Color: Slightly hazy golden, dense white head. Aroma: Malty, hints of hop. Taste: Malty, grainy and hay notes, very light fruity hints of stone fruit. Quite smooth and bit foamy mouthfeel, subtle grassy hopbitterness in the background. Medium body, average carbonation. Moderate sweet, light bitterness. Nice typical German Zwickl.
