damals getrunken als "Ur-Trüb"
Ein Zwickel aus einer klassichen Pils-Gegend. Die Säure des Bieres fällt auch mir unangenehm auf, wobei sie sich mit der Malzigkeit auf einen brutalen Zweikampf einlässt, den das Malz anfangs domniert, aber dann verliert. Der Hopfen steht als Schiedsrichter daneben und macht nicht viel, außer mal kurz das Wort ergreifen, wenn ihm die beiden Kontrahenten mal eine Chance geben. Interessantes Bier mit Charakter, aber zu unausgewogen.

Bügelverschlußflasche: Deep golden, hazy, big - slowly collapsing - loose white head; doughy-fruity nose with some hops underneath; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, light bodied and fizzy; increasing hoppiness in the tart-bitter finish. Unbalanced and fizzy.....

Swing-top bottle. Sweet-sour barley malt and hay aroma. Cloudy amber color with small head. Sweet barley malt, tart lemon peel, and moderately bitter herbal hops flavor. Nice body. Very nice - pretty hoppy for the style.

Kurz wässriger, dann würzig werdender Antrunk. Eine leichte und süffige Herbe kommt auf, hopfig werdend, die Würzigkeit ist hier schön getreidig-hopfig und sehr sanft. Im Abgang deutlich hopfiger, was zu einer Intensitätssteigerung des Bieresführt. Leicht bitter, etwas fruchtig. Test vom 21.2.2008, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 7,12,11,11,8,11 - 10,60

An unclear dark orange beer with quite large chucks of yeast floating around in this unfiltered "pilsner" (that’s what the label reads) underneath a thin beige head. The aroma is sweet with notes of oranges and caramel, while the flavor is slightly acidic with notes of straw and oranges.

(Bottle 33 cl) Pours a hazy, amber golden with a small, off-white head. Sweetish, malty nose. Medium body with plenty of sweet malt - some caramel also. Discreet hoppiness in the finish. Very pleasant. 150506
