Bottle picked up from Degenhart Getrankemarkt, Deggendorf and consumed at home Saturday 29th March 2025 listening to Ela Minus - Día, cooking Mushroom and Rice Stuffed Peppers in a Sour Cream Sauce. Pours clear gold, actually it's a warm gold. Solid festbier, clean, slightly on the sweet side, malty but with a background bitterness and hoppiness. Clean fresh nose.

Bottle@Bishops Arms, Umeå. Yellowish golden colour with a small white foamy head. Aroma is grainy, some sweet malts, mild floral and grassy tones with mild wood too. Flavour is toasted malts, some mild nutty tones with a bit grains and some herbal and grassy tones to it. Nice mellow bitterness in the finish and aftertaste, though the sweet maltiness also stays for quite a while.

500 ml bottle. Clear pale golden with a very foamy head. Zesty, citrusy, grainy, malty, bready. Dry hoppy zesty bitterness. Medium bodied, oily texture, lively carbonated, dry zesty grainy finish. Nice crisp and drinkable Festbier!

(Bottle) Golden colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Malty nose with notes of bread, apricots, citrus, hay, spices, hints of butter and honey. Malty taste with apricots, bread, citrus, honey, grass and a mild spicy bitterness. Medium body, with a slight sweetness. Rounded mouthfeel. Tasty, quite soft and well balanced. Nice one.

Bottle, thanks Max! Light gold, nice head. Spicy caramel nose, smells like Oktoberfest. Nice full body with lots of caramel, missing a bit of bitterness for balance IMO. Good mid complexity and no failures. Tasty!

Bottle from Systembolaget. Golden with a medium white head. A bit sweet with malt, grass, bread and hints of butter. The bitterness was low. Drinkable but nothing special.

(Keg at Pikkulintu, 20200911) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had grass, grain and malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were grass, grain, malts, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was malty, sweet, grassy and bitter. A pleasant brew with the notes of sweet malts and grassy hops.

"Karmeliten Festbier", Flasche von Edeka, Landau. - Goldgelb, schwach trüb. - In der Nase breiteres, mild süßes helles Malz und hintergründige kräuterige Hopfenherbe. - Antrunk satt hellmalzig mit feiner Malzsüße, leichtem Karamelmalz, zart süßsauren Zügen und Anklängen an Waldhonig. Milde aber nicht zu knappe kräuterig-hopfenwürzige Herbe. Milder rezent, vollmundig, glatt. Im Abgang grundiert von milder kräuteriger Hopfenherbe mit etwas Orangenschale. - Schönes, rundes Festbier; das für meinen Geschmack noch eine Spur fülliger sein dürfte.
