Huge thanks to quack-duck for that one! Bottle looks really good. Beer in the glass zippy, nice head. Starts strong, but not alcoholic, malty, fine sweetish notes. Also some woody hints. Fruity notes of peaches. Light hoppy background. Finish well balanced. Quite drinkable. Nice one!

Bottle @ Hopfen & Malz, Berlin. Pours hazy golden with a white head. A distinct note of alcohol, orange, honey, marmalde, dusty hops. Its very Sweet and sticky. The beer and hops could be fresher - expiring this week, but not sure this is for me..

Flasche (33 cl) von Hopfen & Malz, Berlin. - Helles Orangegelb, trüb. - In der Nase intensiver, schwer zitrusfruchtiger Aromahopfen (Saphir, Taurus). - Antrunk bocktypisch breit hellmalzig und honigwürzig. Die wuchtige Hopfung kann hier naturgemäß nicht mit feineren Aromen aufwarten, bietet aber mit harziger Schwere das nötige Gegengewicht zur Malzfülle. Mild rezent, vollmundig, ölig. Schwer aber nicht sirupartig. Im Abgang Orangenschalenbittere, die fast etwas zu dezent ausfällt. Hopfenaromatischer Nachtrunk. - Außergewöhnlich gelungener Heller Bock von enormem aromatischen Tiefgang, der spielend mit den besten fränkischen Beispielen mithalten kann

Bottle. Light hazy pale amber, creamy white head. Pleasant fruity malt base, apples, pears, light strudel. Fresh grassy light flowery hop aromatics. Full-bodied, chewy, mellow mouthfeel. Rich and nourishing, never sweet and cloying - perfectly balanced. Perhaps a slightly more pronounced bitter zing in the end would improve it, but as it is: Really a great beer.

0.33 l bottle from ’Biermuda’, best before March 2017. Clear, golden yellow with a medium large, frothy, almost stable, white head. Sweetish, fruity-floral, slightly grassy aroma of lemon, passion fruit, white grapes and some straw. Sweetish, fruity-floral, slightly grassy taste of lemon, passion fruit, white grapes, straw and some sweet biscuits, followed by a short, medium bitter, minimally grassy and slightly alcoholic finish. Medium to full body, smooth and slightly oily mouthfeel, average carbonation. Good stuff, lots of hoppy fruitiness with a great palate and a crisp finish.

(bottle, 33cl, big thanks to Doctor Bock!) Hazy, pale golden colour with a blond and firm medium-sized foamy head. Pronounced resiny and slightly herbal hoppy aroma with malty notes of biscuits and a tinge of marzipan. Moderately sweet and mildly bitter flavour, medium to full bodied with a smooth and soft carbonation. Slightly biscuity malt character with a whiff of honey, accompanied by a rounded touch of herbal, resiny and subtle floral “old world” hops, lingering into the sweet-bitter finish with a well-embedded alcoholic strength. Flavour- and powerful pale Bock. Superb ! 27.XI.15

bottle, pozdrav do Bochumi! Slightly hazy golden yellow with a mid-sized white head. Pleasantly hoppy aroma, shy hints of tropcial fruit. Malty start, not too sweet, good, aromatic hops tuning in at once, resulting in a bitter-sweet character. Mango and papaya are detectable in the far distcance. Very well balanced, very pleasant outhfeel. Velvety and dangerously drinkable. Good stuff from a reliable brewery!
