(Draught at the brewpub, Potsdam, 23 July 2010) Hazy yellow colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with bread, hay, grass and a touch of tropical fruit. Malty, slightly fruity taste with notes of bread, grass, a touch of tropical fruit and a gentle grassy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with balanced sweetness. Kind of average, but refreshing and nice.

05/03 Draught at the brewpub. It poured hazy brown body with smaller brownish head. Very nice malty aroma, caramel and some roasted malt. Coffee bitterish flavor but well balanced, even slightly overwhelmed with some sweeter dark malty caramel and fruitiness. Fuller in body with longer, sweetish caramel finish. Liked this beer, which is much better than their helles.

05/03 Draught at the brewpub. It had hazy pale golden body with small head. Quite fine aroma, unpasteurized sourish hops, slightly grainy. Very weak flavor, some fine chalky and bready malts and yeast, but nothing too much indeed. Thin body gives short finish, where some sourish lemony hops are showing up again. Pretty boring watery brewpub beer.

Draught, at 5.2% at the brewpub. Poured a murky, almost opaque brown body with a slightly off white head. A nice coffeeish soft roasty malty nose, some notes of plums. Sweet obviously and lovely. Lightish roasty, caramelly,slightly sourish, soft taste, no alcohol. Nice but not very complex and far from stellar.
