(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a blond foamy head of medium size. Grainy malty aroma with delicately citric and flowery hops. Moderately sweet flavour, light bodied with a calm carbonation. Grainy pale malt-character with subtle fruity and floral accents; sweet malty and delicately bitter hoppy finish with a grainy aftertaste. Unspectacular but clean and easy going. 11.X.10

(bottle) Clear, pale golden colour with a dense medium-sized foamy white head. Citrus-fruity and slightly herbal hoppy aroma with a slightly grainy pale malty background. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Balanced mildly sweet malty base with flowery, subtle fruity and delicately herbal hops; sweet malty finish with rounded mildly bitter, but most of all noble hoppy touch. Very pleasant. 08.X.10

(bottle, purchased at the brewery a couple of days ago) Clear, pale golden colour with a mid-sized foamy white head. Distinctively grassy and herbal hoppy aroma, almost a bit like weed with a soft pale malty background. Moderately bitter and slightly sweet flavour, light bodied but not watery, crisp carbonation. Slim pale malty base with a good dash of herbal hops, lingering into the dry and mildly sweet malty and subtle grainy finish. Probably one of the best light Lagers I have tasted. Dry, hoppy and refreshing. 06.X.10

previously tested on German BTO 12/2006: Dieses Bier stammt aus der privaten Landbrauerei Storchen (seit 1804) in Pfaffenhausen (Unterallgäu). Schöne Etiketten, dunkelrot mit Storch. Hellgelb liegt es im Glas und riecht hopfig. Schmeckt auch ziemlich hopfig, für bayerische Verhältnisse ist hier recht wenig Malz zu finden. Das Bier hat einen ganz eigenen Charme und Charakter, wirklich gut.

previously tested on German BTO 01/2007: 0,33l-Flasche mit extrem langem Hals, habe ich noch nie gesehen, passt aber perfekt zum Namen. Auf dem Etikett ein Storch im seichten Wasser und ein kleiner Hinweis, dass die Brauerei den Landesbund für Vogelschutz in Bayern e.V. unterstützt. Hell, viel Schaum, malziger Duft. Insgesamt malziger Geschmack, leichte fruchtige Säure und angenehme Hopfenaromen. Schmeckt ausgezeichnet, sehr empfehlenswert.

previously tested on German BTO 01/2007: Die dunkle Version des Störchle, das Schwarzsstörchle ist recht dunkel, aber nicht ganz schwarz wie die Nacht. Röstmalzig, leichte Kaffeenoten und etwas Karamell sowie leichte Hopfenherbe lassen sich erkennen. Gut abgestimmt und sehr süffig.
