Draft. Clear golden color. Aroma is juicy fruit gum. Taste is straw and fruit. Odd.

Flaske 0,33l på Le Corbeau (The Raven) i Brussel 6 Mai 11. Deres husøl. Innkjøpt via Tyskland. Brun. OK skum som flater ut. Svakt krydret. Fin fruktig smak. God malt & fruktsmak. Godt integrert. Litt søt. Et overaskende øl.

GBBF. Cask. Very hazy gold beer. Light palate, no carbonation! No head. Nice orangey fruits. Semi dry finish. Not very lagerish and a shame it was flat. Otherwise alright.

Malzig-süßlicher Antrunk. Das künstlich wirkende säuerliche Aroma verdirebt den Mittelteil, ist aber im Abgang so gut wie nicht mehr zu schmecken. Aber auch sonst ist es dort ziemlich wässrig, lediglich eine leichte Malzigkeit ist erkennbar. Süffig, aber langweilig und durch die säuerliche Einheit nicht gerade schmackhaft. Test vom 18.6.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 6,7,9,5,4,6 - 6,35

On draught at the hotel bar in Towson. The beer is a clear pale orange color with a minimal off-white head that disappears quickly. Spotty lacing on the glass. Mild hops and grainy malt in the nose. Light body with a sweet bready malt character and notes of hops. The finish is short and mildly hoppy with a bit of fruit on the back end. Just average overall.

Rocket Bar, DC tap ($6): Pours a light amber color with a little head. Aroma is bready and slightly malty. At first it tastes all fine and bready with the emphasis on the malts. A little thin in my opinion. No real hop presence. By the end of it, I wasn’t able to properly distinguish it from a pale lager. Still it was pretty drinkable and refreshing enough.

Bottle that I picked up Bremen, Germany and consumed at Landsmeer, campsite, Amsterdam, 29-10-09 Pours copper in colour with a white head, bubbly, busy carbonation. Touch metallic in mouth, its actually quite gassy is this. Soft mouthfeel, but touch thin and watery, maltines and bitterness ok, but its a touch bland and tasteless, lacks body for a 5.5% beer.

Draft at the 2009 MD Spring Fest. Tastes Oktoberfesty to me. Filtered orange-tan color. Almost tastes fined. Drinkable and smooth with a quality yeast taste. Well done.
