500ml bottle. Clear, yellow-ish, dark golden colour with average, frothy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Minimally grainy, pale malty and minimally grassy, hoppy aroma, a touch of spelt and silage. Taste is sweet-ish, pale malty, mildly bitter hoppy, a touch of honey. Slightly creamy, watery texture, smooth, soft and silky palate, medium to fine, soft, mildly prickly carbonation. Rather simple and monotonous, but well balanced sweetness, nice creamy mouthfeel - OK.

Bottle picked up from Globus Getränkemarkt, Plattling and consumed at home Friday 25th November 2022 listening to Steve Lamaq on 6Music, we have Isobel with us tonight and we're having a Spinach and Ricotta Lasagne for tea. Pours clear warm gold with a white head. Malty from the off, a little bready, soft carbonation, a little honey sweetness. Good.

Recht helle Farbe für ein Festbier. Leckerer, frischer Geruch - Getreidefeld trifft auf Sommerblumenwiese. Damit hat man schon einen guten Vorgeschmack was einem beim Trinken erwartet. Fruchtige Noten spielen ab dem Mittelteil ebenfalls mit (insbesondere etwas vollreife, gelbe Birne und Quitte). Obwohl eher dezent gehopft, hat der Hopfen einen wichtigen Anteil am positiven Gesamtbild. Vielleicht etwas zu viel Kohlensäure. Aber ansonsten doch recht nahe dran an einem idealen Festbier.

Bottle. Blonde. Malty floral notes and butter in the aroma. Malty floral buttery flavor. Diacetyl. Disappointing.

50cl bottle. Pours clear golden colour with a mid-sized white head. Aroma of sweet pale malt. Taste of sweetish malt, hay, mild hops, nothing special.

Pours a golden body with white fluffy head. Aroma is malt. The flavor is light, refreshing, funk with notes of malt.

Bottle: Golden, a bit unclear, smaller lacy and stable white head, bisquity-woody nose; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied and chewy; bisquity and woody - again - finish. Fine beer from a fine brewery.....

(bottle) Clear, golden colour with a medium-sized and slightly off-white foamy head. Moderately sweet and slightly strawy (cara-)malty aroma with herbal and subtle fruity hops. Sweet and slightly bitter flavour, medium to light bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly strawy cara-malty taste with a discreetly hoppy background; sweet and shy bitter hoppy finish. A typical German Festbier without any particular ups and downs. Close to Winterfestbier, if not identical. 31.XII.11

Bottle. A clear, slightly pale golden beer with a white head. Pale malts and dms on the nose, rather uninteresting, but not foul. The flavor is sweet, malty and a bit fruity, releasing some bitterness towards the end. Quite sweet on the palate but dries up. I like the bitterness in this one, else it’s a waste of ingredients. 090822
