On tap at Battersea Beer Festival 2006. Chestnut colour with lasting off white head. Smokey bacon aroma. Good in mouth, quite smooth. Bit spicey, but a lovely smokey flavour. Good finish and a refreshing change from all of those bitters, bitters, bitters..... 4/5 On tap at Hummel it’s so easy drinking. Smoke is there but light. The dry bitter smoke finish excites me no end. For me the perfect rauch.

An amber beer with a thin beige head. The aroma contains lots of caramel, but also notes of straw and yeast - as if it has been warm fermented. The flavor is sweet with primary notes of caramel, and with a dry end with primary notes of straw.

[Draft at GBBF 2005] A brown beer with a thin brown head. The aroma is sweet and very smoked with notes of rope. The flavor is also sweet and quite smoked - reminds me of smoked heering and rope. Nice one.

(Bottle) Brass coloured and hazy with a thick head. Smooth, buttery toffee aroma. Malty, fruity toffee flavour followed by a long, nutty bitterness.

Rerate from tap. Good chewy cookie malt. Grassy hops, dry, moreish. Old rating: 6 5 5 2 10 Bottle
Hazy orange amber colour, creamy tanned head. Honeyish, spicy, somewhat diacetylic aroma. Caramelly malt base, hops far in the background. Lightbodied. Overall disappointing, but knowing the overall quality of this brewerys other beers it might very well be a fluke.

Handsome golden, pearling carbonation, creamy head. Malty base, herbal hops, earthy notes. It tilts more towards a Helles than a typical bavarian pils. Good body.

Bottled, alc. 5.6% (BB 11/2005)
Copper brown, small brownish head. Butterscotch, diacetylic nose, slightly malty. Light palate, a bit harsh, untypical (for German) grassy hoppy flavor (Polish hops?). Hoppy aftertaste. Strange märzen.

Tap at the brewery
Yeasty earth aroma, perfumed clove. Pale cloudy yellow, fluffy white head. Banana and clove, with emphasis on the clove, hint of burned sugar. Medium to light body. Dry clove exit. I find the difference between the typical banana/bubblegum Weizen of southern Bavaria in contrast to the drier clove and citrus weissbier of Franconia quite interresting.

Tap@Brewpub (stein) and later from a 5l partyfass
Cloudy orange-amber, creamy off-white head. Yeasty fruity, just the hint of diacetyl and a plentifull herbal hop nose. Hard to describe what sets it appart from other Kellerbier really - it just has the right combination of yesty, fruity, earthy nothes and heavyhanded yet elegant use of herbal hops. Chewy, but easy drinkable, body - this beer wont tire you. Fruity and herbal aftertaste. Drinking this beer in good company only adds to the experience - thanks for driving us to Merkendorf Lut!
