Bottle. It’s amber colored and almost clear in the glass, and a small, off-white head on top. Citrus, candy and a belgo like yeastyness in the aroma. Sweet, candy-ish flavor, sort of belgian style, fruity and yeasty too, finishing rather quickly. Medium body. A really strange one, certainly not reminding me of any style I can think of, and not very tasteful or interesting. 110204

330 ml bottle. Golden body with a moderate, dense off-white head. Aroma is strange and metallic, not very nice. Flavor is quite strange as well, some kind of undefined fruity/berry, not refreshing just weird together with some kind of caramel. It actually tastes better than aroma and its possible to drink it, just difficult to describe. And not any nice by ordinary standard. Something is wrong with this bottle, I have an older rating from this, but the description is uncomplete.

Bottled. A pale golden beer with an off-white head. The aroma has notes of skunky brewing cereal, caramel, and malt. The flavor has notes of metal, caramel, malt, and brewing cereal, leading to a dry metallic finish.

Good thick yellowish head, leaving lace over deep-brown beer with red highlights. Sourish nose, lactic with molasses, and wood. Faint bitter-sour and sweet, giving it a nice balance. Retronasal liquorice. Main problem with this beer is its watery texture; faint gristslickness, but thin. Not special, but quite drinkable. Brewed in reality (under licence) in Germany by Anker Brauerei Nagold
