As Weisse Elster Red Ale, 6.9% ABV. Bottle looks good. Beer in the glass zippy, brownish, nice small head. Starts mild, malty, more and more hoppy, light fruity hints, notes of peach, apricot. Mild bitter background. Well balanced finish, also with some hints of caramel. I liked it!

Bottle from Edeka in Leipzig. Smooth grainy beginning with red malts. Malty, easy to drink with bitter hops in the end. Round but not too deep, easy to drink, full bodied, nice though.

On tap at Goldhopfen, Leipzig. Comes with a cloudy, pale golden color and a nice white head. Fruity and flowery aromas, followed by some hops. Taste is hopy and crisp, only hints of citrus. Reminds me of a pilsener.
