Europameister-Bier

Schraubverschlußflasche: Golden, mid-sized lacing white head; sweet-sourish and grainy nose; moderate sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied; lemony traces in the sweet, slightly honeyish and malty finish, some rudimental hops in the aftertaste. Quite monotonous.......

(screw cap bottle, as Europameister-Bier 2008) Clear, golden colour with a medium-sized, slightly off-white foamy head. Sweet and a bit sugary cara-malty nose with a tinge of honey. Moderately sweet flavour, quite slim bodied according to its abv of 6.0%, slightly sharp carbonated mouthfeel. Pale malt character with light notes of cara-malt and honey. Medium-dry, malt-accented, slightly bitter finish. Nothing special, but deceptive brew with an alcohol well-hidden (06.03.08).

(Bottle 50 cl) In my version called "WM-Bier 2002" - same thing. Beautiful clear amber without much head. Rather full-bodied with weak notes of caramel and a rather sharp bitter finish. 071002

Malty, honeyish and wooden aroma. Golden chestnut, big bubbles, nice creamy head. Malty with a roasted wooden note, citrus, nuts, a tad dust, toasted finish and afterplay. Medium to light body, sparkly mouthfeel - quite refreshing. I fully agree with Joris - really not a bad one-off.

Slightly hazy, greenish-amber; off-white head, quite carbonated. Very caramel-y and just a touch grassy nose. Caramel taste, less pronounced than the nose; some bitterness, walnutty in character, leafy. Even a bit of adstringency. Despite its character, nice and refreshing. Quite light MF, however, a bit at odds with the taste. I seem to get some madeirisation, BBD is not indicated clearly. I must confess to like it - and that’s a rarity for this popular one-offs, usually a poor excuse for some quick money.
